This is, of course, racy & wrong - we could set signals_pending just
after checking it.

Need to make this

{
        if (!signals_blocked)
                return;
        signals_blocked = 0;
        barrier();

        if (signals_pending && signals_enabled) {
...


Anyway, I need to repost this series, but I'll wait a bit longer for
further feedback before that, since I know Arnd and others wanted to
take a look at the IOMEM and PCI bits.
