[PATCH 0/2] ARM: set thread_info->syscall just before sys_* execution

[r.peniaev@gmail.com (Roman Pen)]

Hello.

It turned out to be that on ARM 'syscall_get_nr' call and
corresponding userspace proc access '/proc/*/syscall' always
return 0 instead of correct syscall number:

 # cat /proc/*/syscall
 0 0xffffffff 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0 0xbea33cc0 0xb6f32f2c
 0 0x5 0x16e99a8 0x0 0x0 0x0 0xbeec03b4 0xbeec02a0 0xb6cc85e0
 0 0x3 0xbeee5d44 0xbeee5d40 0xbeee5d40 0x0 0x0 0xbeee5d3c 0xb6ef40ac
 0 0xffffffff 0xbed757f8 0x2 0x0 0x2 0xbed757f8 0xbed757e0 0xb6e4af2c
 [snip]

Where first digit should be not 0, but correct syscall number.

The first patch fixes this and the second one does minor tweaks.
