musl libc also defines the structures in their arch/aarch64/bits/signal.h header file. Some applications like strace and gdb include both of them and then the structure definitions are clashing and the build of these user space applications fails.

This patch allows a libc to define a constant which tells the kernel header file that the libc already defined these structures and that they should not be defined by the kernel uapi header files any more to prevent clashes. This is done in a similar way as it is already done for other header files.

When this patch was accepted into the kernel I will also update musl libc to define these constants.

I don't entirely object to this outright, but I'd really like to avoid adding further __UAPI_DEF_* suppressions. AIUI asm/sigcontext.h is not intended to be used with userspace headers. Is it still being indirectly included via some other uapi headers? (I thought that was fixed..) If so, that should really be fixed first, and then we can see if there's still motivation for the patch here.
