If I read this right, the loop where this define is used
_TIF_ALLWORK_MASK in v4.1 of which _TIF_NEED_RESCHED_MASK was part of.
Adding this will reassmeble the old behaviour.

Just a question (sorry if dumb). ARM has _TIF_WORK_MASK defined:
#define _TIF_WORK_MASK (_TIF_NEED_RESCHED | _TIF_SIGPENDING | \
        _TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME | _TIF_UPROBE)

which is used to calculate loop exit condition in
 do_work_pending() (arch/arm/kernel/signal.c).

Should _TIF_WORK_MASK also contain _TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY?
