The biggest road-block is that signal vs syscall handling is fundamentally broken in linux-user and it's unfixable without assembler implementations of the syscall caller.
I'm not entirely sure it's possible to fix even with hand-rolled assembly, to be honest.
However there are a bunch of bugfixes in your tree which it would be really nice to see upstreamed: the sendmmsg patch, for instance. We can at least get the aarch64 support to the same level as the 32 bit arm linux-user setup, which is genuinely useful to people despite the well known races and locking issues.
