[PATCH 09/10] kernel: entry: Drop usage of TIF flags in the generic syscall code

From: Gabriel Krisman Bertazi
Date: Fri Nov 13 2020 - 22:30:37 EST


Now that the flags migration in the common syscall entry is complete and
the code relies exclusively on syscall_work, clean up the
accesses to TI flags in that path.
