Ah, I think the problem is actually in
3136b93c3fb2b7c19e853e049203ff8f2b9dd2cd ("entry: Expose helpers to
migrate TIF to SYSCALL_WORK flag"). In the !GENERIC_ENTRY case, it
adds this code:

+#define set_syscall_work(fl)                                           \
+       set_ti_thread_flag(current_thread_info(), SYSCALL_WORK_##fl)
+#define test_syscall_work(fl) \
+       test_ti_thread_flag(current_thread_info(), SYSCALL_WORK_##fl)
+#define clear_syscall_work(fl) \
+       clear_ti_thread_flag(current_thread_info(), SYSCALL_WORK_##fl)
+
+#define set_task_syscall_work(t, fl) \
+       set_ti_thread_flag(task_thread_info(t), TIF_##fl)
+#define test_task_syscall_work(t, fl) \
+       test_ti_thread_flag(task_thread_info(t), TIF_##fl)
+#define clear_task_syscall_work(t, fl) \
+       clear_ti_thread_flag(task_thread_info(t), TIF_##fl)

but the SYSCALL_WORK_FLAGS are not valid on !GENERIC_ENTRY, we'll mix
up (on arm64) SYSCALL_WORK_BIT_SECCOMP (==0) and TIF_SIGPENDING (==0).

As part of fixing this, it might be a good idea to put "enum
syscall_work_bit" behind a "#ifdef CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY" to avoid
future accidents like this?
