PATCH 1/1 s390: fix syscall_get_error for compat processes

If both the tracer and the tracee are compat processes, and gprs[2] is assigned a value by __poke_user_compat, then the higher 32 bits of gprs[2] are cleared, IS_ERR_VALUE() always returns false, and syscall_get_error() always returns 0.

Fix the implementation by sign-extending the value for compat processes the same way as x86 implementation does.

The bug was exposed to user space by commit 201766a20e30f ("ptrace: add PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request") and detected by strace test suite.

This change fixes strace syscall tampering on s390.
