From: Elvira Khabirova <lineprin...@altlinux.org> Arch code should use tracehook_*() helpers, as documented in include/linux/tracehook.h, ptrace_report_syscall() is not expected to be used outside that file.
The patch does not look very nice, but at least it is correct and opens the way for PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO API. Co-authored-by: Dmitry V.
