In v3, this test was extended to check whether PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO
called immediately after PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO returns the same syscall
number, and on s390 it apparently doesn't, thanks to its implementation
of syscall_get_nr() that returns 0xffff in this case.

To workaround this, we could either change syscall_get_nr() to return -1
in this case, or add an #ifdef __s390x__ exception to the test.

What would you prefer?
