[OpenAFS-devel] SIGKILL ignored by afsd

I'm experiencing the strange issue that sending `SIGKILL` to `afsd`
using `sudo pkill -KILL afsd` (returns with `0`) doesn't have any effect
on afsd which remains running (in sleeping state) according to `ps -A |
grep afs`. Afaik that's impossible, so I assume it's a bug. Since I
don't experienced this issue with any other process ever I assume it's
an OpenAFS and not a Linux bug. Should I thus file it?

experienced with OpenAFS 1.6.18-1~ppa0~ubuntu16.04.1 on Ubuntu 16.04
with Linux 4.4.0 and 4.5.7
