[PATCH] signal: optimise signal_pending()
From: Pavel Begunkov
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 06:18:26 EST
Optimise signal_pending() by checking both TIF_SIGPENDING and
TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL at once. Saves quite a bit of generated instructions,
e.g. sheds 240B from io_uring alone, some including ones in hot paths.

Suggestions on how to make it less disruptive to abstractions are most
welcome, as even the one below fails to generated anything sane because
of test_bit()
return unlikely(test_ti_thread_flag(ti, TIF_SIGPENDING) |
test_ti_thread_flag(ti, TIF_SIGPENDING));
