Parent processes use signalfd(2) to handle signals and block those
signals before opening the signalfd.

% git grep -nF 'sigprocmask('                            
hasher-priv/caller_server.c:236:        sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL);
hasher-priv/chrootuid.c:140:    sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &sigmask, NULL);
hasher-priv/hasher-privd.c:315: sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &mask, NULL);
hasher-priv/signal.c:27:        if (sigprocmask(what, &set, 0) < 0)

I'd never seen a call like block_signal_handler(*, SIG_SETMASK)
in hasher-priv codebase at the time + I decided to make the patches as
non-intrusive to the unchanged part of the codebase as possible.
That's why I wrote this as is; I don't mind to change it, though.
