Oleg Nesterov e91b481623 task_work: teach task_work_add() to do signal_wake_up()
So that the target task will exit the wait_event_interruptible-like
loop and call task_work_run() asap.

The patch turns "bool notify" into 0,TWA_RESUME,TWA_SIGNAL enum, the
new TWA_SIGNAL flag implies signal_wake_up().  However, it needs to
avoid the race with recalc_sigpending(), so the patch also adds the
new JOBCTL_TASK_WORK bit included in JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK.

TODO: once this patch is merged we need to change all current users
of task_work_add(notify = true) to use TWA_RESUME.
