sync_core_before_usermode() had an incorrect optimization. If the kernel returns from an interrupt, it can get to usermode without IRET. It just has to schedule to a different task in the same mm and do SYSRET. Fortunately, there were no callers of sync_core_before_usermode() that could have had in_irq() or in_nmi() equal to true, because it's only ever called from the scheduler. While at it, clarify a related comment.
