ARC: Signal handling
Includes following fixes courtesy review by Al-Viro * Tracer poke to Callee-regs were lost Before going off into do_signal( ) we save the user-mode callee regs (as they are not saved by default as part of pt_regs). This is to make sure that that a Tracer (if tracing related signal) is able to do likes of PEEKUSR(callee-reg). However in return path we were simply discarding the user-mode callee regs, which would break a POKEUSR(callee-reg) from a tracer. * Issue related to multiple syscall restarts are addressed in next patch Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Jonas Bonn <jonas@southpole.se>
