thread_info: factor out restart_block
Since commit f56141e3 ("all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct"), thread_info and restart_block have been logically distinct, yet struct restart_block is still defined in <linux/thread_info.h>. At least one architecture (erroneously) uses restart_block as part of its thread_info, and thus the definition of restart_block must come before the include of <asm/thread_info>. Subsequent patches in this series need to shuffle the order of includes and definitions in <linux/thread_info.h>, and will make this ordering fragile. This patch moves the definition of restart_block out to its own header. This serves as generic cleanup, logically separating thread_info and restart_block, and also makes it easier to avoid fragility.
