signals: Fix more rcu assumptions

1) Remove the misleading comment in __sigqueue_alloc() which claims
   that holding a spinlock is equivalent to rcu_read_lock().

2) Add a rcu_read_lock/unlock around the __task_cred() access
   in __sigqueue_alloc()

This needs to be revisited to remove the remaining users of
read_lock(&tasklist_lock) but that's outside the scope of this patch.
