Your approach looks good. One nit below implementation-wise:

If we add _rseq_handle_notify_resume() here, we'd need the CONFIG_RSEQ=n code to also have an empty static inline for it.
So I'm not sure we want all 3 of:
void __rseq_handle_notify_resume(struct ksignal *sig, struct pt_regs *regs);
static inline void _rseq_handle_notify_resume(struct ksignal *ksig, struct pt_regs *regs)
static inline void rseq_handle_notify_resume(struct pt_regs *regs)
Instead, can we just have:
__rseq_handle_notify_resume(struct ksignal *sig, struct pt_regs *regs);
static inline void rseq_handle_notify_resume(struct ksignal *ksig, struct pt_regs *regs)
and change the callers to rseq_handle_notify_resume to pass a NULL pointer when they are not within signal delivery ?
Thanks,
Mathieu
