You could perhaps push a signal frame onto the stack.  It's going to
be expensive, but it's already in the context switch path, so maybe it
does not matter.
Please no! Signals are a trainwreck that need change (see the whole
AVX-512 / AMX saga), we shouldn't use more of that just cause.
If it's a signal, it should be modeled as such.  I think it's pretty
close to a synchronous signal.
