fctnl(F_SETSIG) no longer works in 2.6.17, does in 2.6.16.

The attached program (oplocktest.c) illustrates. Compile and run with strace. In another
shell do "echo >> oplockstest.c".  On 2.6.16 we get:

fcntl64(3, F_SETSIG, 0x23)              = 0
fcntl64(3, 0x400 /* F_??? */, 0x1)      = 0
nanosleep({50, 0}, 0) = ? ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK (To be restarted)
--- SIGRT_3 (Real-time signal 1) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGRT_3 +++

on 2.6.17 we get:

fcntl64(3, F_SETSIG, 0x23)              = 0
fcntl64(3, 0x400 /* F_??? */, 0x1)      = 0
nanosleep({50, 0}, 0) = ? ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK (To be restarted)
--- SIGIO (I/O possible) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGIO +++

The signal is no longer changed from SIGIO to SIGRT_3.

This causes problems with samba and kernel oplocks. Windows clients get the dreaded "Delayed Write Failed" message when smbd dies with SIGIO.
