task_work: Use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL if available

task_work: Use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL if available

[ Upstream commit 114518eb6430b832d2f9f5a008043b913ccf0e24 ]

If the arch supports TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL, then use that for TWA_SIGNAL as
it's more efficient than using the signal delivery method. This is
especially true on threaded applications, where ->sighand is shared across
threads, but it's also lighter weight on non-shared cases.

io_uring is a heavy consumer of TWA_SIGNAL based task_work. A test with
threads shows a nice improvement running an io_uring based echo server.

1.38M requests/second, and all 16 CPUs are maxed out.

1666111.38 requests per second
~1450% CPU

1.67M requests/second, and we're no longer just hammering on the sighand
lock. The original reporter states:

"For 5.7.15 my benchmark achieves 1.6M qps and system cpu is at ~80%.
 for 5.7.16 or later it achieves only 1M qps and the system cpu is is
 at ~100%"

with the only difference there being that TWA_SIGNAL is used
unconditionally in 5.7.16, since it's required to be able to handle the
inability to run task_work if the application is waiting in the kernel
already on an event that needs task_work run to be satisfied. Also see
commit 0ba9c9edcd15.
