Will,
Sorry for not responding quickly.

Typo. I will fix it.

I'm afraid that we can't remove this branch because we don't want to override
a value of r0 in regs which a tracer may have already changed while skipping
a syscall.

Good point. I'm not quite sure how it works for OABI, but looking into entry-comon.S,
there is some code:

It seems to me that scno, actually r7 in regs, is already offset.

Sure. I will fix it.

I meant so (that is, resulting in bad_syscall).
As I mentioned earlier, a task calling syscall(-1, or whatever native value) is always
signaled on arm. Meanwhile, whether it is intended or not, this behavior is not simulated
in the current arm64 compat syscalls.

The same comment above.
