[PATCH V4 2/8] fork: move PF_IO_WORKER's kernel frame setup to new flag

From: Mike Christie
Date: Thu Oct 07 2021 - 17:45:52 EST


The vhost worker threads need the same frame setup as io_uring's worker
threads, but handle signals differently and do not need the same
scheduling behavior. This patch separate's the frame setup parts of
PF_IO_WORKER into a new PF flag PF_USER_WORKER.
