Yes, I need to use kill -9.  The process does not even react to
SIGSTOP/SIGCONT (^Z in the shell).

But there's that 1ms pause between calls to ioctl().  And the arguments
are always the same.  Doesn't it mean it's a retry loop?

ioctl(13, 0xc018644e, 0xffed9a90)       = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
nanosleep({0, 1000}, NULL)              = 0
ioctl(13, 0xc018644e, 0xffed9a90)       = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
nanosleep({0, 1000}, NULL)              = 0
ioctl(13, 0xc018644e, 0xffed9a90)       = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily
unavailable)
nanosleep({0, 1000}, NULL)              = 0
