Re: [PATCH 3/4] signalfd: fix interaction with posix-timers

This only affects signalfd and so the core change seems ok vs status quo.

I think it would be better overall not to have anyone like signalfd calling
dequeue_signal in its current form at all. (The function is too much an
internal piece of the core signals code. The SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED code
applying for signalfd calls is probably another problem, for example.)


Thanks,
Roland
