commit 5c1f33e2a03c0b8710b5d910a46f1e1fb0607679 upstream.
In the main() code, we eventually enable signals just before exec() or exit(), in order to to not have signals pending and delivered *after* the exec().
I've observed SIGSEGV loops at this point, and the reason seems to be the irqflags tracing; this makes sense as the kernel is no longer really functional at this point. Since there's really no reason to use unblock_signals_trace() here (I had just done a global search & replace), use the plain unblock_signals() in this case to avoid going into the no longer functional kernel.
