[RFC PATCH for 4.16 05/21] x86: Add support for restartable sequences

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Thu Dec 14 2017 - 11:15:01 EST


Call the rseq_handle_notify_resume() function on return to userspace if
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME thread flag is set.

Increment the event counter and perform fixup on the pre-signal frame
when a signal is delivered on top of a restartable sequence critical
section.
