  The scheduling policy for TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY is to allow the
running task to voluntarily schedule out, running it to completion.

For archs with GENERIC_ENTRY, do this by adding a check in
exit_to_user_mode_loop().

Please write out architectures. This is not twatter.

Thankfully not! Will fix (this and elsewhere).
