If I'm reading this right, this will catch do_notify_parent, which is
sending signals not from current.  Not sure of the best way to avoid
this.  For pids that case is being ignored by not using the __SI_MASK,
so CLD_EXITED etc will cause from_ancestor_ns to be false.  Could we
do that here too, and then translate the pids in do_notify_parent?
