Re: [PATCH v9 2/6] arch: move SA_* definitions to generic headers

Most architectures with the exception of alpha, mips, parisc and
sparc use the same values for these flags. Move their definitions into
asm-generic/signal-defs.h and allow the architectures with non-standard
values to override them. Also, document the non-standard flag values
in order to make it easier to add new generic flags in the future.

Can we add a placeholder for this in the common header?  We don't want
people accidentally defining a new generic flag that clashes with this.

Otherwise, looks like a sensible cleanup.
