Thank you very much for this. There were some bugs elsewhere I had to deal with so I am slower looking at this part of the code than I was expecting. I have now reproduced this with the commit reverted on current kernels and the repro.c from the syzcaller report. I am starting to look into how this interacts with my planned code changes in this area. In combination with my other planned changes I think all that needs to happen in do_coredump is to clear TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL along with TIF_SIGPENDING to prevent io_uring interaction problems. But we will see. The deadlock you demonstrate here shows that it is definitely not enough to clear TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (without other changes) so that signal_pending returns false, which I was hoping was be the case.
