[LTP] [PATCH v2] syscalls/signal06: loop being clobbered by syscall on clang

[Edward Liaw via ltp <ltp@lists.linux.it>]

Indicate to the compiler that the syscall will modify registers rcx
and r11 to prevent loop from getting clobbered.

Signed-off-by: Edward Liaw <edliaw@google.com>

When I combined the asm instruction into one line, it threw an error
that the "Asm-specifier for input or output variable conflicts with asm
clobber list" for rax.  I omitted it for now, but I'm not sure if that
is correct.

Also, is it ok to change the subject line like I did?
