A signal is delivered by raising irq_work() which works from any context including NMI. irq_work() can be delayed if the architecture does not provide an interrupt vector. In order not to lose a signal, the signal is injected via task_work during event_sched_out(). Instead going via irq_work, the signal could be added directly via task_work. The signal is sent to current and can be enqueued on its return path to userland. Queue signal via task_work and consider possible NMI context. Remove perf_event::pending_sigtrap and and use perf_event::pending_work instead.
