1. info->q can be already freed if SIGQUEUE_PREALLOC.
Once get_signal_to_deliver() or any other caller drops ->siglock
another thread can do sys_timer_delete()->sigqueue_free().
2. We need to move do_schedule_next_timer() from dequeue_signal()
here.
Otherwise ->q can be reused/overwritten by the next send_sigqueue()
right affter ->siglock is dropped.
