Currently syscall_trace() is called only for ptrace.
With additional TIF_xx flags defined, it is now called in all the cases
of audit, ftrace and seccomp in addition to ptrace.

All looks fine up to here.

Aren't these changes (to ptrace.c) just a giant NOP?

Umm, the purpose of this big "if" is to run the code only if TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE is set,
and to make it easy to add additional hooks, audit and ftrace, around tracehook_report_*()
later on.

The existing code already checks TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE. I'd rather you added
this new code when it's actually nedded (e.g. when adding audit on top).

* This patch is required only if you really merge my audit and/or ftrace patch.
* Putting these changes in audit patch would impose an extra (unnecessary) dependency on ftrace patch.
* Putting them both in audit and ftrace patch would cause a conflict when applying both patches.

Even so, since I don't bother you on this minor issue, I will follow your comment and make changes on:
* arm64: make a single hook to syscall_trace() for all syscall features
* arm64: Add audit support
* arm64: Add ftrace support
