[PATCH v3 07/15] livepatch/s390: add TIF_PATCH_PENDING thread flag

From: Miroslav Benes <mbenes@suse.cz>

Update a task's patch state when returning from a system call or user
space interrupt, or after handling a signal.

This greatly increases the chances of a patch operation succeeding. If
a task is I/O bound, it can be patched when returning from a system
call. If a task is CPU bound, it can be patched when returning from an
interrupt. If a task is sleeping on a to-be-patched function, the user
can send SIGSTOP and SIGCONT to force it to switch.

Since there are two ways the syscall can be restarted on return from a
signal handling process, it is important to clear the flag before
do_signal() is called. Otherwise we could miss the migration if we used
SIGSTOP/SIGCONT procedure or fake signal to migrate patching blocking
tasks. If we place our hook to sysc_work label in entry before
TIF_SIGPENDING is evaluated we kill two birds with one stone. The task
is correctly migrated in all return paths from a syscall.
