This is interesting approach. But I doubt we need to add additional
syscall just for this purpose. Can't we use another syscall or ioctl?
Also, we should run syzkaller on this syscall. And if uretprobe is
set in the user function, what happen if the user function directly
calls this syscall? (maybe it consumes shadow stack?)
Thank you,
