please do not use PF_SIGNALED, it must die. Besides you can't rely on this flag
in multi-threaded case. current->exit_code doesn't look right too.

So afaics the problem is that fatal_signal_pending() is not necessarily true
after SIGKILL was already dequeued and thus wait_event_killable(), right?

This was already discussed, but it is not clear what we can/should do. We can
probably change get_signal() to not dequeue SIGKILL or do something else to keep
fatal_signal_pending() == T for the exiting killed thread.

But in this case we probably also want to discriminate the "real" SIGKILL's from
group_exit/exec/coredump.
