Thomas Garnier 2404269bc4 Revert "arm/syscalls: Check address limit on user-mode return"
This reverts commit 73ac5d6a2b.

The work pending loop can call set_fs after addr_limit_user_check
removed the _TIF_FSCHECK flag. This may happen at anytime based on how
ARM handles alignment exceptions. It leads to an infinite loop condition.

After discussion, it has been agreed that the generic approach is not
tailored to the ARM architecture and any fix might not be complete. This
patch will be replaced by an architecture specific implementation. The
work flag approach will be kept for other architectures.
