thread_info->syscall is used only for ptrace, but syscall number
is also used by syscall_get_nr and returned to userspace by the
following proc file access:

 $ cat /proc/self/syscall
 0 0x3 0xbe928bd8 0x1000 0x0 0xac9e0 0x3 0xbe928bb4 0xb6f5dfbc
 ^
The first number is the syscall number, currently it is zero.
Patch fixes this:

 $ cat /proc/self/syscall
 3 0x3 0xbefc7bd8 0x1000 0x0 0xac9e0 0x3 0xbefc7bb4 0xb6e82fbc
 ^
Right, read syscall
