[PATCH 2/3] x86/entry: Fix entry/exit mismatch on failed fast 32-bit syscalls

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Tue Feb 23 2021 - 00:51:30 EST


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 exit work. This would confuse audit and ptrace.

This is a minimal fix intended for ease of backporting. A more
complete cleanup is coming.
