error: implicit declaration of function ‘signal_pending’

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Linux 4.11 moves signal function declarations to its own header file:
Linux: 174cd4b1e5fb ("sched/headers: Prepare to move signal wakeup &
sigpending methods from <linux/sched.h> into <linux/sched/signal.h>")
User new header file "linux/sched/signal.h" to fix build error.
