As Al Viro pointed out on IRC, the rseq_signal_deliver() should go after syscall
restart handling, similarly to what is done on every other supported architecture.

Note that there is already an upstream commit derived on this non-upstream patch:

commit 9866d141a097 ("csky: Add support for restartable sequence")

which is broken in the same way.

I'm not sure why I was never CC'd on the csky patch. Considering that nobody
bothered to implement the rseq selftests for csky, I don't see how any of
this is tested. I would favor a revert of that commit until the testing glue
is contributed. Unfortunately, the csky commit has been upstream since v5.7.

Thanks,

Mathieu
