Subject: [PATCH v1] rust: error: add ERESTARTSYS error code

This error code was probably excluded here originally because it never
actually reaches user programs when a syscall returns it. However, from
the perspective of a kernel driver, it is still a perfectly valid error
type, that the driver might need to return. E.g., this can be necessary
when a signal occurs during sleep.
