[RFC PATCH 12/18] lockd: Convert the central lockd service to kthread_iterant API

[Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.cz>]

The new iterant kthread API allows to define a common checkpoint for
freezing, parking, termination, and even signal handling. It will allow
to maintain kthreads more easily and make the operations more reliable.

The kthread function is split into optional init(), func(), destroy() parts
where func() is called in a cycle. The common check point is after
each func() function finishes. See kthread_iterant_fn() for more details.

This patch moves the action associated with the signal into a proper
signal handler.

It removes the obsolete set_freezable() call because iterant kthreads
are freezable by default.

struct kthread_iterant is stored into struct svc_rqst. We have already
stored there the pointer to the related task_struct.

The rest is just shuffling the code from the while cycle into _func().
