Vineet Gupta c3581039b6 ARC: Signal handling
Includes following fixes courtesy review by Al-Viro

* Tracer poke to Callee-regs were lost

  Before going off into do_signal( ) we save the user-mode callee regs
  (as they are not saved by default as part of pt_regs). This is to make
  sure that that a Tracer (if tracing related signal) is able to do likes
  of PEEKUSR(callee-reg).

  However in return path we were simply discarding the user-mode callee
  regs, which would break a POKEUSR(callee-reg) from a tracer.

* Issue related to multiple syscall restarts are addressed in next patch
