[PATCH] Remove signal handling for nanosleep (bug 16364)


Linux 2.6.32 and forward do not show the issue regarding SysV SIGCHLD
vs. SIG_IGN for nanosleep which make it feasible to use it for sleep
implementation without requiring any hacking to handle the spurious
wake up.  This patch simplifies the sleep code to call nanosleep
directly.

Checked on x86_64, ppc64le, and aarch64.

	[BZ #16364]
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sleep.c (__sleep): Simplify code to use
	nanosleep without requiring to handle spurious wakeups.
