 * task_work_add - ask the @task to execute @work->func()
 * @task: the task which should run the callback
 * @work: the callback to run
 * @notify: how to notify the targeted task
 *
 * Queue @work for task_work_run() below and notify the @task if @notify
 * is @TWA_RESUME, @TWA_SIGNAL, or @TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI.
 *
 * @TWA_SIGNAL works like signals, in that the it will interrupt the targeted
 * task and run the task_work, regardless of whether the task is currently
 * running in the kernel or userspace.
 * @TWA_SIGNAL_NO_IPI works like @TWA_SIGNAL, except it doesn't send a
 * reschedule IPI to force the targeted task to reschedule and run task_work.
 * This can be advantageous if there's no strict requirement that the
 * task_work be run as soon as possible, just whenever the task enters the
 * kernel anyway.
 * @TWA_RESUME work is run only when the task exits the kernel and returns to
 * user mode, or before entering guest mode.
 *
 * Fails if the @task is exiting/exited and thus it can't process this @work.
 * Otherwise @work->func() will be called when the @task goes through one of
 * the aforementioned transitions, or exits.
 *
 * If the targeted task is exiting, then an error is returned and the work item
 * is not queued. It's up to the caller to arrange for an alternative mechanism
 * in that case.
 *
 * Note: there is no ordering guarantee on works queued here. The task_work
 * list is LIFO.
 *
 * RETURNS:
 * 0 if succeeds or -ESRCH.
