[PATCH] Set TIF_IRET in more places

From: Luca Barbieri (ldb@ldb.ods.org)
Date: Mon Jan 06 2003 - 09:46:01 EST

This patch adds code to set TIF_IRET in sigsuspend and rt_sigsuspend
(since they change registers to invoke signal handlers) and ptrace
setregs. This prevents clobbering of %ecx and %edx.
