Do not recheckpoint at signal code return. Just make sure TIF_RESTORE_TM is set, which will restore on the exit to userspace by restore_tm_state. All the FP and VEC lazy restore was already done by tm_reclaim_current(), where it checked if FP/VEC was set, and filled out the ckfp and ckvr registers area to the expected value. The current FP/VEC restoration is not necessary, since the transaction will be aborted and the checkpointed values will be restore.
