Back in commit f56141e3e2d9aabf ("all arches, signal: move restart_block
to struct task_struct"), all architectures and core code were changed to
use task_struct::restart_block. However, when h8300 support was
subsequently restored in v4.2, it was not updated to account for this,
and maintains thread_info::restart_block, which is not kept in sync.
This patch drops the redundant restart_block from thread_info, and moves
h8300 to the common one in task_struct, ensuring that syscall restarting
always works as expected.

This was previously sent as a reply to another patch [1], and then subsequently
on its own [2], but I haven't heard anything for about three weeks since the
last posting.
This happens to get in the way of moving thread_info into task_struct on some
architectures as it implicitly relies on include ordering in a core header. I
have a workaround for that, but this does seem like a major bug regardless...
Mark.
