When a signal interrupts a blocking send, tls_tx_records() treats the
resulting -ERESTARTSYS as a transmission failure and marks the socket
errored via tls_err_abort() with the raw error code. Later syscalls
return the kernel-internal errno 512 (ERESTARTSYS) to userspace, as the
signal it stems from is no longer pending during syscall exit and thus
never translated.

An interrupted send is not a connection error: the partially sent record
stays queued and is resent later. Interrupt error codes are therefore
excluded from the abort in the same way as -EAGAIN.

Tested on top of net commit 3f1f75536668 ("net: openvswitch: reject
oversized nested action attrs").

Several subsystems contain static helper functions to classify these
interrupt errnos. It might be worthwhile to refactor these static
functions into a generic helper function.
