powerpc/kernel: Change the do_syscall_trace_enter() API
The API for calling do_syscall_trace_enter() is currently sensible enough, it just returns the (modified) syscall number. However once we enable seccomp filter it will get more complicated. When seccomp filter runs, the seccomp kernel code (via SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO), or a ptracer (via SECCOMP_RET_TRACE), may reject the syscall and *may* or may *not* set a return value in r3. That means the assembler that calls do_syscall_trace_enter() can not blindly return ENOSYS, it needs to only return ENOSYS if a return value has not already been set. There is no way to implement that logic with the current API. So change the do_syscall_trace_enter() API to make it deal with the return code juggling, and the assembler can then just return whatever return code it is given.
