signal/x86/traps: Use force_sig instead of open coding it.
The function "force_sig(sig, tsk)" is equivalent to " force_sig_info(sig, SEND_SIG_PRIV, tsk)". Using the siginfo variants can be error prone so use the simpler old fashioned force_sig variant, and with luck the force_sig_info variant can go away.
