[PATCH] fix broken vm86 interrupt/signal handling

Commit c3ff8ec31c1249d268cd11390649768a12bec1b9 ("[PATCH] i386: Don't
miss pending signals returning to user mode after signal processing")
meant that vm86 interrupt/signal handling got broken for the case when
vm86 is called from kernel space.

In this scenario, if signal is pending because of vm86 interrupt,
do_notify_resume/do_signal exits immediately due to user_mode() check,
without processing any signals.  Thus, resume_userspace handler is spinning
in a tight loop with signal pending and TIF_SIGPENDING is set.  Previously
everything worked Ok.

No in-tree usage of vm86() from kernel space exists, but I've heard
about a number of projects out there which use vm86 calls from kernel,
one of them being this, for instance:

The following patch fixes the issue.
