Where is the actual TSS updated?

Ditto.

I think what you need to do is have a single function, called by
exit_thread(), switch_to(), and here, that updates the TSS to match a
given task's IO bitmap state.  This is probably switch_to_bitmap() or
similar.

(Maybe it already is, but I swear I checked all the patches in the
series and I can't find the body of tss_update_io_bitmap().  But you
should call it in all branches of this if-else thing.)
