Thanks for the report. Yes, the nature of the problem is similar but here
we don't hit standard filesystem write path where a signal test is. I'll
send a fix which fixes the issue for me shortly.

BTW, this test actually doesn't hang for me but rather burns CPU all the
time and thus causes also softlockups / RCU stalls. I'll send a fix for
that as well.
