One thing I don't like about this is that task_clear_no_new_privs()
ends up getting defined, and it should absolutely never be used. NNP
should never be cleared or there could be security issues. I realize
this isn't a very useful nit-pick, but I'd rather the function wasn't
even available for someone to accidentally use. Maybe break up the
macro with some kind of "write only" version like:

#define TASK_PFA_BITOPS_WO(name, func)                            \
static inline bool task_##func(struct task_struct *p)          \
{ return test_bit(PFA_##name, &p->atomic_flags); }             \
static inline void task_set_##func(struct task_struct *p)      \
{ set_bit(PFA_##name, &p->atomic_flags); }

#define TASK_PFA_BITOPS(name, func)                            \
TASK_PFA_BITOPS_WO(name, func);          \
static inline void task_clear_##func(struct task_struct *p)    \
{ clear_bit(PFA_##name, &p->atomic_flags); }

TASK_PFA_BITOPS_WO(NO_NEW_PRIVS, no_new_privs)

And then all the new users can use TASK_PFA_BITOPS() normally since
they expect to use "clear"?
