[PATCH v2 2/7] Drivers: hv: Disentangle VTL return cancellation from SIGPENDING

Check for return to a lower VTL being cancelled separately from handling
pending TIF-based work, as there is no need to immediately process pending
work; the kernel will immediately exit to userspace (ignoring preemption)
and handle the pending work at that time.
Disentangling cancellation from the TIF-based work will allow switching to
common virtualization APIs for detecting and processing pending work.
