Subject: sys32_sigsuspend()'s need for ptregs parameter

ia32entry.S has a PTREGSCALL entry for sys32_sigsuspend(), yet the
function doesn't have a struct pt_regs * parameter. What's setting up
that argument good for? Or is this just a leftover?

Same would apply to sys_rt_sigsuspend().

Thanks, Jan
