So this is a redistributor thing, not an ITS thing, so I'd prefer not
solving it that way.
I was just thinking if we should do a limit of the number of times we'll
do this or check if we have a pending signal and just return, but
actually, I don't think this is a problem, because the path that keeps
changing the configuration will eventually run out of CPU resources and
this thread would have forward progress.

If you have two separate cores running this function at the same time,
trying to clear each a bit in the same word, wouldn't you loose one of
the cleared bits?
Maybe that can never happen because the commands would be serialized and
we should be restoring the system in serial as well?
