Jens Axboe b7db41c9e0 io_uring: fix regression with always ignoring signals in io_cqring_wait()
When switching to TWA_SIGNAL for task_work notifications, we also made
any signal based condition in io_cqring_wait() return -ERESTARTSYS.
This breaks applications that rely on using signals to abort someone
waiting for events.

Check if we have a signal pending because of queued task_work, and
repeat the signal check once we've run the task_work. This provides a
reliable way of telling the two apart.

Additionally, only use TWA_SIGNAL if we are using an eventfd. If not,
we don't have the dependency situation described in the original commit,
and we can get by with just using TWA_RESUME like we previously did.

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.
