[PATCH 5.10 038/102] entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[ Upstream commit 47b8ff194c1fd73d58dc339b597d466fe48c8958 ]

Following the idle loop model, cleanly check for pending rcuog wakeup
before the last rescheduling point on resuming to user mode. This
way we can avoid to do it from rcu_user_enter() with the last resort
self-IPI hack that enforces rescheduling.
