That's exactly the reason why we need to preempt_disable() the whole
run; we can't preempt on preempt_enable(), it would screw up our
ktime estimation.

I'm not sure, they look like two separate flags, it feels safer to handle
them separately (and we have a precedent in do_check in verifier.c). While
we do set them both when sending signal, it looks like need_resched is
for the cases where we wake up a task with a higher priority. So, in
theory, we can have a signal_pending without need_resched. (Also, with
CONFIG_PREEMT=y kernel, there is another complication with
preempt_count()).
