[RFC PATCH for 4.17 07/21] powerpc: Add support for restartable sequences

From: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng at gmail.com>

Call the rseq_handle_notify_resume() function on return to userspace if
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME thread flag is set.

Increment the event counter and perform fixup on the pre-signal when a
signal is delivered on top of a restartable sequence critical section.
