5.11 has support queued up for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL, see this posting
for details:

https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/20201026203230.386348-1-axboe@kernel.dk/

As part of that work, I'm adding TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL support to all archs,
as that will enable a set of cleanups once all of them support it. I'm
happy carrying this patch if need be, or it can be funelled through the
arch tree. Let me know.
