csky restore_sigcontext() blindly overwrites regs->sr with the value it finds in sigcontext. Attacker can store whatever they want in there, which includes things like S-bit. Userland shouldn't be able to set that, or anything other than C flag (bit 0).
Do the same thing other architectures with protected bits in flags register do - preserve everything that shouldn't be settable in user mode, picking the rest from the value saved is sigcontext.
