On a 32-bit fast syscall that fails to read its arguments from user
memory, the kernel currently does syscall exit work but not
syscall entry work. This confuses audit and ptrace. For example:
$ ./tools/testing/selftests/x86/syscall_arg_fault_32
...
strace: pid 264258: entering, ptrace_syscall_info.op == 2
...
This is a minimal fix intended for ease of backporting. A more
complete cleanup is coming.
