sizeof(sigset_t) may be different for native and 32-bit compat code.
It would be good if you could handle sizemask==4 && sizeof(sigset_t)==8
in this code, so that there is no need for an extra compat_sys_signalfd
function.

I never really understood the events mask, but other subsystems often
use (POLLIN | POLLRDNORM) instead of just POLLIN. Is there a reason
for not returning POLLRDNORM here?

Doing it this way looks rather inefficient to me. I think it's
better to just prepare the signalfd_siginfo on the stack and
do a single copy_to_user.

Also, what's the reasoning behind defining a new structure
instead of just returning siginfo_t? Sure siginfo_t is ugly
but it is a well-defined structure and users already deal
with the problems it causes.

Since this file defines a syscall, it can't be a module, so why bother
with this?

Since you define the structure using __u32 etc types, I assume
you mean it to be included from libc or other user space, right?
In this case it needs to be listed in include/linux/Kbuild for
make headers_install to work.

And all of these need to be surrounded by #ifdef __KERNEL__ so
they don't bleed out to the user space visible parts.
