The value of btype for syscalls is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE,
so we need to make sure that the value is 0 before clone,
fork, or syscall return.
The value of btype for signals is defined, but it does not make
sense for a SIGILL handler to enter with the btype set as for
the indirect branch that caused the SIGILL.
Clearing the value early means that btype is zero within the pstate
saved into the signal frame, and so is also zero on (normal) signal
return, but also allows the signal handler to adjust the value as
seen after the sigcontext restore.
This last is a guess at a future kernel's user-space ABI.

If the idea is to give a particular value on return from
the syscall and on entry to a signal handler, shouldn't we be
setting it after the do_syscall() call returns, and in the
signal handler entry path ?

Leaving btype alone rather than clearing it here would be
consistent with how we handle semihosting in system emulation,
right ?

Er.. yes. I sort of forgot we had semi-hosting for aa64.
