Currently, we store syscall nr in pt_regs::regs[11] and syscall execve()
accidentally overrides it during its execution:
sys_execve()
-> do_execve()
-> do_execveat_common()
-> bprm_execve()
-> exec_binprm()
-> search_binary_handler()
-> load_elf_binary()
-> ELF_PLAT_INIT()
ELF_PLAT_INIT() reset regs[11] to 0, so in syscall_exit_to_user_mode()
we later get a wrong syscall nr. This breaks tools like execsnoop since
it relies on execve() tracepoints.
Skip pt_regs::regs[11] reset in ELF_PLAT_INIT() to fix the issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
