Jens Axboe 0ba9c9edcd io_uring: use TWA_SIGNAL for task_work uncondtionally
An earlier commit:

b7db41c9e03b ("io_uring: fix regression with always ignoring signals in io_cqring_wait()")

ensured that we didn't get stuck waiting for eventfd reads when it's
registered with the io_uring ring for event notification, but we still
have cases where the task can be waiting on other events in the kernel and
need a bigger nudge to make forward progress. Or the task could be in the
kernel and running, but on its way to blocking.

This means that TWA_RESUME cannot reliably be used to ensure we make
progress. Use TWA_SIGNAL unconditionally.

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.
