This is a review version of the 32-bit asm-to-C migration.  I think
it works, but it's not yet well enough tested.  I'm a lot more
familiar with the 64-bit asm than the 32-bit asm.

The vm86 stuff especially needs much more careful testing.  Brian,
since you're playing with vm86 now, can you take a look?

Changes from v1:
 - Fix some nasty vm86 issues.  v1 was a regression.  v2 is an improvement
   over the status quo AFAICT.
 - Add patch 1, which is probably worthwhile on its own.
 - Get rid of the temporary ud2 hack.

Andy Lutomirski (6):
  x86/selftests, x86/vm86: Improve entry_from_vm86 selftest
  x86/entry/32: Remove 32-bit syscall audit optimizations
  x86/entry/32: Fix an incorrect comment for work_notifysig_v86
  x86/entry/32: Remove unnecessary asm check for returns to kernel mode
  x86/entry/32: Migrate to C exit path and rework vm86 exit hack
  x86/entry: Remove do_notify_resume, syscall_trace_leave, and their TIF
    masks
