Thanks.

Can't reproduce, but at first glance the problem looks clear...

Could you confirm that this WARN_ON() happens _after_ the reproducer exits?

Yes I think you are right. SIGSTOP can race with SIGKILL which (unlike SIGCONT)
doesn't clear JOBCTL_STOP_DEQUEUED/PENDING/etc.

This is mostly fine, the task won't block in TASK_STOPPED if SIGKILL is pending,
but still is not right and leads to the warning above: JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING was not
set because do_signal_stop()->task_set_jobctl_pending() checks fatal_signal_pending().

Probably the patch below should fix the problem, but I'd like to think more before
I send the fix.

Oleg.
