Re: [RFC, PATCH] signals: print_fatal_signal: fix the signr "calculation"

I'm not sure print-fatal-signals was really ever intended for

correct. We used to have them for SIGKILL but even that was confusing to
users - so the intent very much is to only have them for truly
unexpected, non-user generated and 'fatal', coredump-generating signals.
