2.4.17: sys_sigsuspend does not return value

[Pavel Machek <pavel@suse.cz>]

Hi!

>From 2.4.17:

asmlinkage int
sys_sigsuspend(int history0, int history1, old_sigset_t mask)
{
        struct pt_regs * regs = (struct pt_regs *) &history0;
        sigset_t saveset;

        mask &= _BLOCKABLE;
        spin_lock_irq(&current->sigmask_lock);
        saveset = current->blocked;
        siginitset(&current->blocked, mask);
        recalc_sigpending(current);
        spin_unlock_irq(&current->sigmask_lock);

        regs->eax = -EINTR;
        while (1) {
                current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
                schedule();
                if (do_signal(regs, &saveset))
                        return -EINTR;
        }
}

...Which looks to me like it returns something undefined when
do_signal returns 0. What prevents gcc from having "top secret" value
in eax, and from returning that value to userspace?
