Hmm. queue != 0 && !nonblock ?

And in this case you should also update signalfd_poll().

To be honest, personally I think this looks ugly. If you add an
argumemt to dequeue_signal() it would be better to use bitmask.
But this is minor.


Well. Perhaps we can avoid all these complications? IIUC, all you
need is to know if the dequeued signal is private or shared. Since
you add SFD_RAW anyway perhaps we can report this fact instead?
This doesn't need any changes in signal.c, signalfd_dequeue() can
easily know which queue dequeue_signal() will use.
