Subject: [PATCH 17/30] x86/thread_info: define TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY

Define TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY which, with TIF_NEED_RESCHED provides the
scheduler with two kinds of rescheduling intent: TIF_NEED_RESCHED,
for the usual rescheduling at the next safe preemption point;
TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY expressing an intent to reschedule at some
time in the future while allowing the current task to run to
completion.
