[RFC PATCH 1/1] rseq: Eliminate useless task_work on execve

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Eliminate a useless task_work on execve by moving the call to
rseq_set_notify_resume() from sched_mm_cid_after_execve() to the error
path of bprm_execve(),

The call to rseq_set_notify_resume() from sched_mm_cid_after_execve() is
pointless in the success case, because rseq_execve() will clear the rseq
pointer before returning to userspace.

sched_mm_cid_after_execve() is called from both the success and error
paths of bprm_execve(). The call to rseq_set_notify_resume() is needed
on error because the mm_cid may have changed.
