In do_notify_resume, we handle _TIF_NEED_RESCHED differently from all other flags, leaving IRQ+FIQ masked when calling into schedule(). This masking is a historical artifact, and it is not currently necessary to mask IRQ+FIQ when calling into schedule (as evidenced by the generic exit_to_user_mode_loop(), which unmasks IRQs before checking _TIF_NEED_RESCHED and calling schedule()). This patch removes the special case for _TIF_NEED_RESCHED, moving this check into the main loop such that schedule() will be called from a regular process context with IRQ+FIQ unmasked. This is a minor simplification to do_notify_resume() and brings it into line with the generic exit_to_user_mode_loop() logic. This will also aid subsequent rework of DAIF management.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
