task_work: Add TWA_NMI_CURRENT as an additional notify mode.



Adding task_work from NMI context requires the following:
- The kasan_record_aux_stack() is not NMU safe and must be avoided.
- Using TWA_RESUME is NMI safe. If the NMI occurs while the CPU is in
  userland then it will continue in userland and not invoke the `work'
  callback.

Add TWA_NMI_CURRENT as an additional notify mode. In this mode skip
kasan and use irq_work in hardirq-mode to for needed interrupt. Set
TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME within the irq_work callback due to k[ac]san
instrumentation in test_and_set_bit() which does not look NMI safe in
case of a report.
