    ms/target: Drop signal_pending checks after interruptible lock acquire
    
    ML: ee7619f2eb21304dcc846b8dc8f8c3d6cbe11792
    
    Once upon a time, iscsit_get_tpg() was using an un-interruptible
    lock.  The signal_pending() usage was a check to allow userspace
    to break out of the operation with SIGINT.
    
    AFAICT, there's no reason why this is necessary anymore, and as
    reported by Alexey can be potentially dangerous.  Also, go ahead
    and drop the other two problematic cases within iscsit_access_np()
    and sbc_compare_and_write() as well.
