If the task data was reclaimed (through TM_KERNEL_ENTRY), then it needs to
be recheckpointed later, once exiting to userspace. The recheckpoint is
done by restore_tm_state() function, which is called on our way to
userspace if the task has the TIF_RESTORE_TM flag set.
This patch makes sure the task has TIF_RESTORE_TM tag set every time there
is a reclaim, so, a recheckpoint will be executed later.
