Replace the whole logic with a new implementation, which is shared with signal delivery and the upcoming exit fast path. Contrary to the original implementation, this ignores invocations from KVM/IO-uring, which invoke resume_user_mode_work() with the @regs argument set to NULL. The original implementation updated the CPU/Node/MM CID fields, but that was just a side effect, which was addressing the problem that this invocation cleared TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, which in turn could cause an update on return to user space to be lost. This problem has been addressed differently, so that it's not longer required to do that update before entering the guest. That might be considered a user visible change, when the hosts thread TLS memory is mapped into the guest, but as this was never intentionally supported, this abuse of kernel internal implementation details is not considered an ABI break.

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 reStructuredText 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.
