[RFC PATCH for 4.18 09/16] powerpc: Add syscall detection for restartable sequences

From: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng at gmail.com>
Syscalls are not allowed inside restartable sequences, so add a call to
rseq_syscall() at the very beginning of system call exiting path for
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y kernel. This could help us to detect whether there
is a syscall issued inside restartable sequences.
[ Tested on 64-bit powerpc kernel by Mathieu Desnoyers. Still needs to
be tested on 32-bit powerpc kernel. ]
