Linus noticed that the early return check was missing
_TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY. If the only work flag was
_TIF_USER_RETURN_NOTIFY, we'd skip user return notifiers. Fix
it. (This is the only missing bit.)
This fixes double faults on a KVM host. It's the same issue as
last time, except that this time it's very easy to trigger.
Apparently no one uses -next as a KVM host.
( I'm still not quite sure what it is that KVM does that blows up
so badly if we miss a user return notifier. My best guess is that KVM
lets KERNEL_GS_BASE (i.e. the user's gs base) be negative and fixes
it up in a user return notifier. If we actually end up in user mode
with a negative gs base, we blow up pretty badly. )
