Linux kernel source tree

This isn't a reliable mechanism to tell if we have task_work pending, we really should be looking at whether we have any items queued. This is problematic if forward progress is gated on running said task_work. One such example is reading from a pipe, where the write side has been closed right before the read is started. The fput() of the file queues TWA_RESUME task_work, and we need that task_work to be run before ->release() is called for the pipe. If ->release() isn't called, then the read will sit forever waiting on data that will never arise. Fix this by io_run_task_work() so it checks if we have task_work pending rather than rely on TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL for that. The latter obviously doesn't work for task_work that is queued without TWA_SIGNAL.

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.
