Subject: x86/signal: Fix restart_syscall number for x32 tasks
From: "Dmitry V. Levin" <[email protected]>
commit 22eab1108781eff09961ae7001704f7bd8fb1dce upstream.
When restarting a syscall with regs->ax == -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK, regs->ax is assigned to a restart_syscall number. For x32 tasks, this syscall number must have __X32_SYSCALL_BIT set, otherwise it will be an x86_64 syscall number instead of a valid x32 syscall number. This issue has been there since the introduction of x32.
