Yes, in 2.6.23, TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME has been removed because it was not used
except for perfmon, thus I renamed it. The problem is that you cannot just
override it because you would need a way to further demultiplex the
reason for call do_notify_resume(). Perfmon not simply relies on the
TIF_PERFMON_WORK bit being set. As you realize now this flag would
mean you have some RSE work or some perfmon work.
