    MIPS: Don't stomp on caller's ->regs[2] in copy_thread() · a989ff89
    Al Viro 提交于
    We never needed that (->regs[2] is overwritten on return from syscall paths
    with return value of syscall, so storing it there early made no sense) and
    with new restart logics since d27240bf7e61d2656de18e158ec910a902030847 it
    has become really bad - we lose the original syscall number before the
    place where we decide that we might need a syscall restart.
    
    Note that for child we do need the assignment to regs[2] - it won't go
    through the normal return from syscall path.
