I think we're supposed to use more Reviewed-bys so feel free (or Andrew)
to change this to:

Hm, sorry for being the really nitpicky person here. Just for the sake
of consistency how about we do either:

+ trace_signal_deliver(SIGKILL, SEND_SIG_NOINFO,
+ &sighand->action[SIGKILL - 1]);

or

+ trace_signal_deliver(signr, SEND_SIG_NOINFO,
+ &sighand->action[signr - 1]);

I'm not going to argue about this though. Can just also leave it as is.
