Does this mean that when you get a signal that isn't SIGKILL,
wait_for_completion_interruptible() will bail out with -ERESTARTSYS,
but then you hang on this wait_for_completion_killable()? I don't
understand what's going on here. What's the point of using
wait_for_completion_interruptible() when you'll just hang on another
wait on the same "struct completion"?
