    entry: Add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL · 12db8b69
    Jens Axboe authored
    Add TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL handling in the generic entry code, which if set,
    will return true if signal_pending() is used in a wait loop. That causes an
    exit of the loop so that notify_signal tracehooks can be run. If the wait
    loop is currently inside a system call, the system call is restarted once
    task_work has been processed.
    
    In preparation for only having arch_do_signal() handle syscall restarts if
    _TIF_SIGPENDING isn't set, rename it to arch_do_signal_or_restart().  Pass
    in a boolean that tells the architecture specific signal handler if it
    should attempt to get a signal, or just process a potential syscall
    restart.
    
    For !CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY archs, add the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL handling to
    get_signal(). This is done to minimize the needed architecture changes to
    support this feature.
