9  * task_work_add - ask the @task to execute @work->func()
10  * @task: the task which should run the callback
11  * @work: the callback to run
12  * @notify: how to notify the targeted task
13  *
14  * Queue @work for task_work_run() below and notify the @task if @notify
15  * is @TWA_RESUME, @TWA_SIGNAL, or @TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI.
16  *
17  * @TWA_SIGNAL works like signals, in that the it will interrupt the targeted
18  * task and run the task_work, regardless of whether the task is currently
19  * running in the kernel or userspace.
20  * @TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI works like @TWA_SIGNAL, except it doesn't send a
21  * reschedule IPI to force the targeted task to reschedule and run task_work.
22  * This can be advantageous if there's no strict requirement that the
23  * task_work be run as soon as possible, just whenever the task enters the
24  * kernel anyway.
25  * @TWA_RESUME work is run only when the task exits the kernel and returns to
26  * user mode, or before entering guest mode.
27  *
28  * Fails if the @task is exiting/exited and thus it can't process this @work.
29  * Otherwise @work->func() will be called when the @task goes through one of
30  * the aforementioned transitions, or exits.
31  *
32  * If the targeted task is exiting, then an error is returned and the work item
33  * is not queued. It's up to the caller to arrange for an alternative mechanism
34  * in that case.
35  *
36  * Note: there is no ordering guarantee on works queued here. The task_work
37  * list is LIFO.
38  *
39  * RETURNS:
40  * 0 if succeeds or -ESRCH.
