this and processes should be left empty methinks, because max signals is
in fact unitless.

unneeded (, )

hmm, fork copies this under task lock of group leader and system calls
in sys.c too. What's up?

I'm sure it will give you nonsensical output because of wrong locks but
I haven't checked.

FWIW, it survived ~1 hour of cat /proc/*/limits, mini fork bombs, LTP,
gdb testsuite and one sooper sikrit proggie. on core2
