/*
 * For ARM syscalls, we encode the syscall number into the instruction.
 * With EABI, the syscall number has to be loaded into r7. As result
 * ARM syscall sequence snippet will have move and svc in .arm encoding
 *
 * For Thumb syscalls, we pass the syscall number via r7.  We therefore
 * need two 16-bit instructions in .thumb encoding
 *
 * Please note sigreturn_codes code are not executed in place. Instead
 * they just copied by kernel into appropriate places. Code inside of
 * arch/arm/kernel/signal.c is very sensitive to layout of these code
 * snippets.

/*
 * In CPU_THUMBONLY case kernel arm opcodes are not allowed.
 * Note in this case codes skips those instructions but it uses .org
 * directive to keep correct layout of sigreturn_codes array.
