[PATCH 2/3] arm64: syscall.h: Add sign extension handling in syscall_get_return_value for compat

From: He Zhe
Date: Fri Apr 16 2021 - 03:56:08 EST


Add sign extension handling in syscall_get_return_value so that it can
handle 32-bit compatible case and can be used by for example audit, just
like what syscall_get_error does.
