Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 141/146] signal: Always deliver the kernel's SIGKILL and SIGSTOP to a pid namespace init

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@...ssion.com>

[ Upstream commit 3597dfe01d12f570bc739da67f857fd222a3ea66 ]

Instead of playing whack-a-mole and changing SEND_SIG_PRIV to
SEND_SIG_FORCED throughout the kernel to ensure a pid namespace init
gets signals sent by the kernel, stop allowing a pid namespace init to
ignore SIGKILL or SIGSTOP sent by the kernel.  A pid namespace init is
only supposed to be able to ignore signals sent from itself and
children with SIG_DFL.

Fixes: 921cf9f63089 ("signals: protect cinit from unblocked SIG_DFL signals")
