[PATCH v15 06/11] arm64: ptrace: Move rseq_syscall() before audit_syscall_exit()

[Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@huawei.com>]

Move the rseq_syscall() check earlier in the syscall exit path to ensure
it operates on the original instruction pointer (regs->pc) before any
potential modification by a tracer.

[Background]
When CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ is enabled, rseq_syscall() verifies that a system
call was not executed within an rseq critical section by examining
regs->pc. If a violation is detected, it triggers a SIGSEGV.

[Problem]
Currently, arm64 invokes rseq_syscall() after report_syscall_exit().
However, during report_syscall_exit(), a ptrace tracer can modify the
task's instruction pointer via PTRACE_SETREGS. This leads to an
inconsistency where rseq may analyze a post-trace PC instead of the
actual PC at the time of syscall exit.

[Why this matters]
The rseq check is intended to validate the execution context of the
syscall itself. Analyzing a tracer-modified PC can lead to incorrect
detection or missed violations. Moving the check earlier ensures rseq
sees the authentic state of the task.

[Alignment]
This change aligns arm64 with:
- Generic entry, which calls rseq_syscall() first.
- arm32 implementation, which also performs the check before audit.

[Impact]
There is no functional change to signal delivery; SIGSEGV will still be
processed in arm64_exit_to_user_mode() at the end of the exit path.
