From: Celeste Liu <coelacanthushex@xxxxxxxxx> commit 61119394631f219e23ce98bcc3eb993a64a8ea64 upstream. Otherwise when the tracer changes syscall number to -1, the kernel fails to initialize a0 with -ENOSYS and subsequently fails to return the error code of the failed syscall to userspace. For example, it will break strace syscall tampering. Fixes: 52449c17bdd1 ("riscv: entry: set a0 = -ENOSYS only when syscall != -1") Reported-by: "Dmitry V.
