Doesn't this break the support for changing syscall numbers using PTRACE_SETREGS?

The logic is unchanged except updating the UPT_SYSCALL_NR before syscall_trace_enter(). I did my last tests with the x86_32 subarchitecture and all tests (from selftest/seccomp), including PTRACE_SETREGS for syscall numbers tests, passed. However, 2 of this tests still fail for x86_64 (only).

No, the logic is different.
syscall_trace_enter(regs) enters the ptrace() path and here registers can be changed.
Hence "syscall = UPT_SYSCALL_NR(r);" will see the old syscall number.
UPT_SYSCALL_NR() returns the syscall number before the ptrace() path...
