Great, thanks!

Sure, I'll write the changelog with the explanation and send the patch on
weekend. If it passes your testing.

But in short this is very simple. zap_pid_ns_processes() clears TIF_SIGPENDING
exactly because we want to avoid the busy-wait loop. But today this is not
enough to make signal_pending() return F, see
include/linux/sched/signal.h:signal_pending().

Thanks,

Oleg.
