Ah, sorry... I only suggested to change the signature of send_signal_locked()
and thus has_si_pid_and_uid(). Perhaps a broader change makes sense too, but
this conflicts with another (under discussion) series:

	PATCH v2 3/3] signal: fix evasion of SA_IMMUTABLE signals
	https://lore.kernel.org/all/ajVD6ZmiSQLxjj57@redhat.com/

Now let me take another look at 1/2 ...

Oleg.
