File_system signals

That's an interesting problem. Thank you for raising it.

I actually do not see a better solution to your's. It might be sensible
to add the two signal-handler registering methods 'sigh_ready_to_submit'
and 'sigh_ack_avail' to the 'File_system::Client'. Those methods would
then call the respective methods on the '_tx' member.

Cheers
Norman
