I'm not sure I follow.

So we need an ability for a tracer to cause the tracee to call a function and to return successfully.  Apparently a gdb branch can already do this with shstk, and my PTRACE_CALL_FUNCTION_SIGFRAME should also do the trick.  I don't see why we need a sigretur-but-dont-verify -- we just need this mechanism to create a frame such that sigreturn actually works.
