The RISC-V kernel doesn't define SA_RESTORER, hence the kernel version
of struct sigaction doesn't have the sa_restorer field. The default
kernel_sigaction.h therefore can't be used.

This patch adds a RISC-V specific version of kernel_sigaction.h to fix
the issue. This fixes for example the libnih testsuite.

Note that this patch is not needed in master as the bug has been fixed
by commit b4a5d26d8835 ("linux: Consolidate sigaction implementation").

We can backport that #ifdef from b4a5d26d8835, but it means we also need
to backport the new kernel_sigaction.h files for m68k, s390, sparc, tile
(if I haven't missed any), plus commit d8abfab7d46a to fix a regression
on s390.

So it seems more risky to me. Also note that this is not an installed
header, but just a compile time header.

I think there ought to be a relevant test added to the glibc testsuite (on 
master and backported) if there isn't one already, unless it's hard to 
test this issue for some reason.

I think this is OK given that b4a5d26d8835 cannot be easily backported to 2.27.
