[PATCH v2 0/4] x86: fix get_nr_restart_syscall()

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>]

This version follows the latest recommendation from Linus,
arch_set_restart_data() just saves ti->status in restart->arch_data.

Andy, I can add another patch or change 4/4 to save the syscall number
instead, I am fine either way.

However, personally I dislike restart->arch_data, imo 3/4 is all we need.

I agree, set_restart_fn() is better than the ugly ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK
check in syscall_return_slowpath() added by v1. But to me the x86-only
arch_data field in restart_block is much worse than the sticky TS_ flag.

To remind, there is another reason for the "transient" 3/4, 4/4 is not
easily backportable.

Oleg.
