commit 04d7e098f541769721d7511d56aea4b976fd29fd upstream.

If a syscall is entered without TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE set, then it goes on
the fast path.  It's then possible to have TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE added in
the middle of the syscall, but ret_fast_syscall doesn't check this flag
again.  This causes a ptrace syscall-exit-stop to be missed.

For instance, from a PTRACE_EVENT_FORK reported during do_fork, the
tracer might resume with PTRACE_SYSCALL, setting TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE.
Now the completion of the fork should have a syscall-exit-stop.

Russell King fixed this on arm by re-checking _TIF_SYSCALL_WORK in the
fast exit path.  Do the same on arm64.
