The loops for read and write in PCM OSS emulation have no proper check of pending signals, and they keep processing even after user tries to break. This results in a very long delay, often seen as RCU stall when a huge unprocessed bytes remain queued. The bug could be easily triggered by syzkaller.
As a simple workaround, this patch adds the proper check of pending signals and aborts the loop appropriately.
