[PATCH] signals: annotate siglock acquirement

lock_task_sighand() conditionally acquires sighand->siglock in case of
returning non-NULL but unlock_task_sighand() releases it unconditionally.
This leads sparse to complain about the lock context imbalance. Annotate it
to make sparse happier.

Impact: remove sparse warnings, no runtime overhead.
