Eric W. Biederman 7c5d8fa6fb task_work: Decouple TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and task_work
There are a small handful of reasons besides pending signals that the
kernel might want to break out of interruptible sleeps.  The flag
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and the helpers that set and clear TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL
provide that the infrastructure for breaking out of interruptible
sleeps and entering the return to user space slow path for those
cases.

Expand tracehook_notify_signal inline in it's callers and remove it,
which makes clear that TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL and task_work are separate
concepts.

Update the comment on set_notify_signal to more accurately describe
it's purpose.
