I was about to post the updated version and checked this to make sure I have
covered everything or not. I had missed the above comment. All architectures
have _TIF_NOHZ in their mask that they check to do work. And from x86, I read
"...syscall_trace_enter(). Also includes TIF_NOHZ for enter_from_user_mode()"
So I don't understand why _TIF_NOHZ needs to be dropped.

Also if we need to drop, we can address that separately examining all archs.
I will post the cleanup as you suggested for now.
