We never needed that (->regs[2] is overwritten on return from syscall paths
with return value of syscall, so storing it there early made no sense) and
with new restart logics since
d27240bf7e61d2656de18e158ec910a902030847 it
has become really bad - we lose the original syscall number before the
place where we decide that we might need a syscall restart.
Note that for child we do need the assignment to regs[2] - it won't go
through the normal return from syscall path.
