This is required for clone3 which passes the TLS value through a
struct rather than a register.

Userspace cannot compile &lt;asm/sembuf.h&gt; due to some missing type

Pull sysctl system call removal from Eric Biederman:
 "As far as I can tell we have reached the point where no one enables
  the sysctl system call anymore. It still is enabled in a few
  defconfigs but they are mostly the rarely used one and in asking
  people about that it was more cut &amp; paste enabled than anything else.

  This is single commit that just deletes code. Leaving just enough code
  so that the deprecated sysctl warning continues to be printed. If my
  analysis turns out to be wrong and someone actually cares it will be
  easy to revert this commit and have the system call again.

  There was one new xtensa defconfig in linux-next that enabled the
  system call this cycle and when asked about it the maintainer of the
  code replied that it was not enabled on purpose. As of today's
  linux-next tree that defconfig no longer enables the system call.

  What we saw in the review discussion was that if we go a step farther
  than my patch and mess with uapi headers there are pieces of code that
  won't compile, but nothing minds the system call actually disappearing
  from the kernel"

  sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call

Pull sysctl system call removal from Eric Biederman:
 "As far as I can tell we have reached the point where no one enables
  the sysctl system call anymore. It still is enabled in a few
  defconfigs but they are mostly the rarely used one and in asking
  people about that it was more cut &amp; paste enabled than anything else.

  This is single commit that just deletes code. Leaving just enough code
  so that the deprecated sysctl warning continues to be printed. If my
  analysis turns out to be wrong and someone actually cares it will be
  easy to revert this commit and have the system call again.

  There was one new xtensa defconfig in linux-next that enabled the
  system call this cycle and when asked about it the maintainer of the
  code replied that it was not enabled on purpose. As of today's
  linux-next tree that defconfig no longer enables the system call.

  What we saw in the review discussion was that if we go a step farther
  than my patch and mess with uapi headers there are pieces of code that
  won't compile, but nothing minds the system call actually disappearing
  from the kernel"

system_call assembly code always pushes pointer to struct pt_regs as the
last additional parameter for all system calls. The only user of this
feature is xtensa_rt_sigreturn.
Avoid this special case. Define xtensa_rt_sigreturn as accepting no
argiments. Use current_pt_regs to get pointer to struct pt_regs in
xtensa_rt_sigreturn. Don't pass additional parameter from system_call
code.

Don't overwrite return value if system call was cancelled at entry by
ptrace. Return status code from do_syscall_trace_enter so that
pt_regs::syscall doesn't need to be changed to skip syscall.

system_call saves and restores syscall number across system call to make
clone and execv entry and exit tracing match. This complicates things
when syscall code may be changed by ptrace.
Preserve syscall code in copy_thread and start_thread directly instead of
doing tricks in system_call.
