Subject: [PATCH v2 21/35] sched: prepare for lazy rescheduling in resched_curr()

Handle RESCHED_LAZY in resched_curr(), by registering an intent to
reschedule at exit-to-user.
Given that the rescheduling is not imminent, skip the preempt folding
and the resched IPI.

Also, update set_nr_and_not_polling() to handle RESCHED_LAZY. Note that
there are no changes to set_nr_if_polling(), since lazy rescheduling
is not meaningful for idle.

And finally, now that there are two need-resched bits, enforce a
priority order while setting them.
