signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_to_user
This function may copy the si_addr_lsb, si_lower and si_upper fields to user mode when they haven't been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode. Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same si_code value is shared between multiple signals. This is solved by checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.
