I had sent a patch that introduced a new syscall nr, but it's not quite safe because it could break seccomp-using programs. But your patch here is also screwy.
How about we store the syscall arch to be restored in task_struct along with restart_block? It's not perfect, but it should be 99% of the way there without heuristics as nasty as yours.

P.S. __USER32_CS is the wrong check even if we used your approach. user_64bit_regs() is much better.
