s390: fix system call exit path
The system call exit path is running with interrupts enabled while
checking for TIF/PIF/CIF bits which require special handling. If all
bits have been checked interrupts are disabled and the kernel exits to
user space.
The problem is that after checking all bits and before interrupts are
disabled bits can be set already again, due to interrupt handling.
This means that the kernel can exit to user space with some
TIF/PIF/CIF bits set, which should never happen. E.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED
might be set, which might lead to additional latencies, since that bit
will only be recognized with next exit to user space.
Fix this by checking the corresponding bits only when interrupts are
disabled.
