x86/entry: define _TIF_ALLWORK_MASK flags explicitly

CVE-2018-3639 (x86)

The _TIF_ALLWORK_MASK macro automatically includes the least-significant
16 bits of the thread_info flags, which is less than obvious and tends
to create confusion and surprises when reading or modifying the code.

Define the flags explicitly.
