entry: Add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL
Add TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL handling in the generic entry code, which if set, will return true if signal_pending() is used in a wait loop. That causes an exit of the loop so that notify_signal tracehooks can be run. If the wait loop is currently inside a system call, the system call is restarted once task_work has been processed. In preparation for only having arch_do_signal() handle syscall restarts if _TIF_SIGPENDING isn't set, rename it to arch_do_signal_or_restart(). Pass in a boolean that tells the architecture specific signal handler if it should attempt to get a signal, or just process a potential syscall restart. For !CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY archs, add the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL handling to get_signal(). This is done to minimize the needed architecture changes to support this feature.
