Maybe TIF_XXX_RESCHED also could be merged into GENERIC_ENTRY, just
like what you've done in syscall.

struct thread_info {
unsigned long flags;
unsigned long syscall_work; /* SYSCALL_WORK_ flags */
+ unsigned long resched_work; /* RESCHED flags */

Or merge them into one:
struct thread_info {
unsigned long flags;
- unsigned long syscall_work; /* SYSCALL_WORK_ flags */
+ unsigned long ge_flags; /* GENERIC_ENTRY flags */
