Any reason to not use restore_user / resume_kernel like ppc32 ? It might
help whoever wants to look at that code in the future if we make both
sides a bit closer :-) Not a big deal and if you prefer like this I
don't have a firm objection

Why the above ? Doesn't _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK altready contain
TIF_NEED_RESCHED ? Also this is the kernel path, I'd rather just
define something along the lines of _TIF_KERNEL_WORK_MASK.
Then, you change the definition of it based on PREEMPT, ie:
#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT
#define _TIF_KERNEL_WORK_MASK _TIF_NEED_RESCHED
#else
#define _TIF_KERNEL_WORK_MASK 0
#endif
Now, that does mean that you'll have a useless test without PREEMPT
here but ... it will stop being useless as soon as you port over
the stux emulation so it's fine as a placeholder.
