Thanks Oleg.

This is exactly aligned with what we validated locally as well. Excluding
SA_IMMUTABLE signals from the signalfd dequeue mask addresses that directly.

So this fix makes sense as the contained solution for the reported bug.
The broader signal-ordering / fatal_signal_pending() cleanup you mentioned
also seems worthwhile, but as a follow-up rather than something to fold into
this fix.
