	 * Exercise another nasty special case.  The 32-bit SYSCALL
	 * and SYSENTER instructions (even in compat mode) each
	 * clobber one register.  A Linux system call has a syscall
	 * number and six arguments, and the user stack pointer
	 * needs to live in some register on return.  That means
	 * that we need eight registers, but SYSCALL and SYSENTER
	 * only preserve seven registers.  As a result, one argument
	 * ends up on the stack.  The stack is user memory, which
	 * means that the kernel can fail to read it.
	 *
	 * The 32-bit fast system calls don't have a defined ABI:
	 * we're supposed to invoke them through the vDSO.  So we'll
	 * fudge it: we set all regs to invalid pointer values and
	 * invoke the entry instruction.  The return will fail no
	 * matter what, and we completely lose our program state,
	 * but we can fix it up with a signal handler.
