Mark Rutland e30e8d46cf arm64: fix compat syscall return truncation ...

Due to inconsistencies in the way we manipulate compat GPRs, we have a
few issues today:

* For audit and tracing, where error codes are handled as a (native)
  long, negative error codes are expected to be sign-extended to the
  native 64-bits, or they may fail to be matched correctly. Thus a
  syscall which fails with an error may erroneously be identified as
  failing.

* For ptrace, *all* compat return values should be sign-extended for
  consistency with 32-bit arm, but we currently only do this for
  negative return codes.

* As we may transiently set the upper 32 bits of some compat GPRs while
  in the kernel, these can be sampled by perf, which is somewhat
  confusing. This means that where a syscall returns a pointer above 2G,
  this will be sign-extended, but will not be mistaken for an error as
  error codes are constrained to the inclusive range [-4096, -1] where
  no user pointer can exist.

To fix all of these, we must consistently use helpers to get/set the
compat GPRs, ensuring that we never write the upper 32 bits of the
return code, and always sign-extend when reading the return code.  This
patch does so, with the following changes:

* We re-organise syscall_get_return_value() to always sign-extend for
  compat tasks, and reimplement syscall_get_error() atop. We update
  syscall_trace_exit() to use syscall_get_return_value().

* We consistently use syscall_set_return_value() to set the return
  value, ensureing the upper 32 bits are never set unexpectedly.

* As the core audit code currently uses regs_return_value() rather than
  syscall_get_return_value(), we special-case this for
  compat_user_mode(regs) such that this will do the right thing. Going
  forward, we should try to move the core audit code over to
  syscall_get_return_value().
