You're right, __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER has been added on 3.9 only.
However, due to build failures for some archs (mips, ia64, ...) using
the upstream 2ca39528c01a933f6689cd6505ce65bd6d68a530 commit, Ben
Hutchings has cooked a patch that adds this definition to stable
series.

This patch is currently under review for the 3.5 kernel:

[PATCH 149/150] signal: Define __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER so we know whether to clear sa_restorer

Cheers,
