[RFC PATCH for 4.18 04/16] arm: Add syscall detection for restartable sequences

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Sat Jun 02 2018 - 08:47:34 EST


Syscalls are not allowed inside restartable sequences, so add a call to
rseq_syscall() at the very beginning of system call exiting path for
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y kernel. This could help us to detect whether there
is a syscall issued inside restartable sequences.
