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.

I can't really review these arm-specific patches, but with this change both
syscall_get_error() and is_syscall_success() can use syscall_get_return_value()
to avoid the code duplication.

Thanks. I'll improve this if v2 is needed.

If a compat syscall can ever legitimately return a non-error value with
bit 31 set, and this sign-extends it, is that ever going to reach
userspace as a 64-bit value?

IIUC things like mmap() can return pointers above 2GiB for a compat
task, so I'm a bit uneasy that we'd handle those wrong. I can't see a
way of preventing that unless we keep the upper 32 bits for errors.

Mark.

Looking at this with fresh eyes, I think we can more closely mirror
syscall_get_error(), and do something like:

static inline long syscall_get_return_value(struct task_struct *task,
					    struct pt_regs *regs)
{
	long val = regs->regs[0];
	long error = val;

	if (is_compat_thread(task_thread_info(task)))
		error = sign_extend64(error, 31);
	
	return IS_ERR_VALUE(error) ? error : val;
}

Thanks,
Mark.
