Pull task_work fix from Jens Axboe:
 "The TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL change inadvertently removed the unconditional
  task_work run we had in get_signal().

  This caused a regression for some setups, since we're relying on eg
  ____fput() being run to close and release, for example, a pipe and
  wake the other end.

  For 5.11, I prefer the simple solution of just reinstating the
  unconditional run, even if it conceptually doesn't make much sense -
  if you need that kind of guarantee, you should be using TWA_SIGNAL
  instead of TWA_NOTIFY. But it's the trivial fix for 5.11, and would
  ensure that other potential gotchas/assumptions for task_work don't
  regress for 5.11.

  We're looking into further simplifying the task_work notifications for
  5.12 which would resolve that too"
