syscall: Implement a convinience function restart_syscall
Currently when we have a signal pending we have the functionality to restart that the current system call. There are other cases such as nasty lock ordering issues where it makes sense to have a simple fix that uses try lock and restarts the system call. Buying time to figure out how to rework the locking strategy. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
