The suspend/resume path in kernel/sleep.S, as used by cpu-idle, does not save/restore PSTATE. As a result of this cpufeatures that were detected and have bits in PSTATE get lost when we resume from idle. UAO gets set appropriately on the next context switch. PAN will be re-enabled next time we return from user-space, but on a preemptible kernel we may run work accessing user space before this point. Add code to re-enable theses two features in __cpu_suspend_exit(). We re-use uao_thread_switch() passing current.
