The whole send operation is restartable and handling properly a buffer write may not be easy. We can't know what caused that and if a short delay and retry will fix it or how many retries should be performed in case it's a temporary condition. The error value is returned to the ioctl caller so in case it's transient problem, the user would be notified about the reason. Remove the TODO note as there's no plan to handle ERESTARTSYS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
