arm64: Abstract syscallno manipulation
The -1 "no syscall" value is written in various ways, shared with the user ABI in some places, and generally obscure. This patch attempts to make things a little more consistent and readable by replacing all these uses with a single #define. A couple of symbolic helpers are provided to clarify the intent further. Because the in-syscall check in do_signal() is changed from >= 0 to != NO_SYSCALL by this patch, different behaviour may be observable if syscallno is set to values less than -1 by a tracer. However, this is not different from the behaviour that is already observable if a tracer sets syscallno to a value >= __NR_(compat_)syscalls. It appears that this can cause spurious syscall restarting, but that is not a new behaviour either, and does not appear harmful.
