address space that is fully locked and marked B_KERNEL_AREA. It can
thus be accessed by the kernel without additional checks.
* For each userland thread we do create a user_thread structure in that
area. The structure is accessible from userland via TLS, using the
private get_user_thread() function.
* Introduced private userland functions [un]defer_signals(). They can be
used to cheaply disable/re-enable signal delivery. They use the
user_thread::defer_signals/pending_signals fields which are
checked/updated by the kernel.
