deal with task_work callbacks adding more work
It doesn't matter on normal return to userland path (we'll recheck the NOTIFY_RESUME flag anyway), but in case of exit_task_work() we'll need that as soon as we get callbacks capable of triggering more task_work_add(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
