Yes, it kills init and crashes the kernel. But I do not see the warning.

On a second thought, in this particular case (your test-case), SIGSTOP/SIGKILL do not race, although (so far) I think this doesn't matter. JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING comes from __ptrace_unlink() when the tracee already has the pending SIGKILL due to PTRACE_O_EXITKILL.
Now. If the tracee (init) wakes up and dequeues SIGKILL before __ptrace_unlink() adds JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING, it won't see JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING and probably this is what happens on my testing machine.
Perhaps __ptrace_unlink() should me more carefull too...

Great, thanks.
