    We can, but it's nice to show to userspace that tasks are frozen,
    rather than just stuck somewhere in the kernel...

    Hm, it's not a hot path at all, so set_current_state() is good enough.
    Not a strong preference, of course.

    So, should it be just TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE | TASK_FROZEN ?

    So, yeah, the problem is that if there is TIF_SIGPENDING bit set, schedule()
    will return immediately, so we're getting pretty much a busy loop here.
    This is a nasty workaround.

    I believe we can clear and not call recalc_sigpending() at all. Does this seem
    to be correct?

    Thank you for the review!
    And looking forward for more comments from you!
