On 32-bit/O32, pt_regs has a padding area at the beginning into which the
syscall arguments passed via the user stack are copied. 4 arguments
totalling 16 bytes are copied to offset 16 bytes into this area, however
the area is only 24 bytes long. This means the last 2 arguments overwrite
pt_regs->regs[{0,1}].
If a syscall function returns an error, handle_sys stores the original
syscall number in pt_regs->regs[0] for syscall restart. signal.c checks
whether regs[0] is non-zero, if it is it will check whether the syscall
return value is one of the ERESTART* codes to see if it must be
restarted.
Should a syscall be made that results in a non-zero value being copied
off the user stack into regs[0], and then returns a positive (non-error)
value that matches one of the ERESTART* error codes, this can be mistaken
for requiring a syscall restart.
While the possibility for this to occur has always existed, it is made
much more likely to occur by commit
