ia64: Important security fix for fsyscalls.  Without this patch, the McKinley E9
workaround caused fsyscalls to return with the wrong privilege level.
This patch also adds fsys_rt_sigprocmask(), which happens to be a good
test-case for this bug.  Only McKinley systems using fsyscalls are affected.
Merced and Madison are OK.
