Perhaps. Or we can add recalc_sigpending into wait_freezable().
But note that

	if (!signal_pending(current))
		freezable_schedule();

is not actually right, wait_event_freezable() should be interruptible,
but not by freezer.

And let me repeat, as for coredump this can only solve the problems in
wait_for_dump_handler(). As for other users, I simply do not see any
valid user today, so perhaps wait_event_freezable() should die... Or
I missed something.

I'll try to make the coredumping fixes tomorrow, then we discuss this
again.
