task_current_syscall
This adds the new function task_current_syscall() on machines where the asm/syscall.h interface is supported (CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK). It's exported for modules to use in the future. This function safely samples the state of a blocked thread to collect what system call it is blocked in, and the six system call argument registers.

25 | + * task_current_syscall - Discover what a blocked task is doing. | |
26 | + * @target: thread to examine | |
27 | + * @callno: filled with system call number or -1 | |
28 | + * @args: filled with @maxargs system call arguments | |
29 | + * @maxargs: number of elements in @args to fill | |
30 | + * @sp: filled with user stack pointer | |
31 | + * @pc: filled with user PC | |
32 | + * | |
33 | + * If @target is blocked in a system call, returns zero with *@callno | |
34 | + * set to the the call's number and @args filled in with its arguments. | |
35 | + * Registers not used for system call arguments may not be available and | |
36 | + * it is not kosher to use &struct user_regset calls while the system | |
37 | + * call is still in progress. Note we may get this result if @target | |
38 | + * has finished its system call but not yet returned to user mode, such | |
39 | + * as when it's stopped for signal handling or syscall exit tracing. | |
40 | + * | |
41 | + * If @target is blocked in the kernel during a fault or exception, | |
42 | + * returns zero with *@callno set to -1 and does not fill in @args. | |
43 | + * If so, it's now safe to examine @target using &struct user_regset | |
44 | + * get() calls as long as we're sure @target won't return to user mode. | |
45 | + * | |
46 | + * Returns -%EAGAIN if @target does not remain blocked. | |
47 | + * | |
48 | + * Returns -%EINVAL if @maxargs is too large (maximum is six). | |
