Normally handler for signal is SIG_DFL. It can be SIG_IGN if sig is ignored, in which case force_sig is about to reset it to SIG_DFL. When this returns zero, this signal might cause a quick termination that does not give the debugger a chance to intercept the signal. Called with or without task->sighand->siglock held.
