Subject: [PATCH] parisc/entry: fix trace test in syscall exit path
commit 8779e05ba8aa ("parisc: Fix ptrace check on syscall return")
fixed testing of TI_FLAGS. This uncovered a bug in the test mask.
syscall_restore_rfi is only used when the kernel needs to exit to
usespace with single or block stepping and the recovery counter
enabled. The test however used _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE_MASK, which
includes a lot of bits that shouldn't be tested here.
Fix this by using TIF_SINGLESTEP and TIF_BLOCKSTEP directly.
I encountered this bug by enabling syscall tracepoints. Both in qemu and
on real hardware. As soon as i enabled the tracepoint (sys_exit_read,
but i guess it doesn't really matter which one), i got random page
faults in userspace almost immediately.
