 ast will call userret which in turn will call thread_suspend_check.
 so the bug may not be here, but in other code.
 
 I have found a race between sleep queue and thread suspension code,
 the following patch fixed the bug, it also simplified interaction
 between sleep queue and signal code. now, sleepq_abort() is also
 fixed, it can save an errno, unlike current code, it wrongly works
 as wakeup().
