Pessimistic.

This looks odd and unnecessary.

Why isn't this just a

sigdelsetmask(signal, SIG_KERNEL_STOP_MASK);

since all of the traditional stop bits should be in the low mask.

I see that we apparently have this stupid pattern elsewhere too, and
it looks like it's because we stupidly say "are the RT signals in the
non-legacy set", when that definitely cannot be the case for the (very
much legacy) tty flow control signals.
