[AGL] Apply the syscall restarting patch for aarch64 SoCflounder_6.0.3flounder/6.0.36.0.3
There are some seccomp bpf related failures when running kselftest on R-Car M3(AGL inside). Now, apply this patch to fix the syscall restart related bug(only existing on kernel version < 4.14.53). This patch won't be necessary if the kernel that AGL using was changed to the latest ltsi(4.14.75) or kernel >= 4.14.53 in the future.

+Subject: arm64: Fix syscall restarting around signal suppressed by tracer
+
+Commit 17c2895 ("arm64: Abstract syscallno manipulation") abstracts
+out the pt_regs.syscallno value for a syscall cancelled by a tracer
+as NO_SYSCALL, and provides helpers to set and check for this
+condition. However, the way this was implemented has the
+unintended side-effect of disabling part of the syscall restart
+logic.
+
+This comes about because the second in_syscall() check in
+do_signal() re-evaluates the "in a syscall" condition based on the
+updated pt_regs instead of the original pt_regs. forget_syscall()
+is explicitly called prior to the second check in order to prevent
+restart logic in the ret_to_user path being spuriously triggered,
+which means that the second in_syscall() check always yields false.
+
+This triggers a failure in
+tools/testing/selftests/seccomp/seccomp_bpf.c, when using ptrace to
+suppress a signal that interrups a nanosleep() syscall.
+
+Misbehaviour of this type is only expected in the case where a
+tracer suppresses a signal and the target process is either being
+single-stepped or the interrupted syscall attempts to restart via
+-ERESTARTBLOCK.
+
+This patch restores the old behaviour by performing the
+in_syscall() check only once at the start of the function.
