> On sparc64 compat-enabled kernels, any task can make 32-bit and
> 64-bit syscalls.  is_compat_task returns true in 32-bit tasks, which
> does not necessarily imply that the current syscall is 32-bit.
> 
> Provide an in_compat_syscall implementation that checks whether the
> current syscall is compat.

> As far as I know, sparc is the only architecture on which

> compat status of a syscall can differ from the compat status of the
> task.  On x86, is_compat_task checks the syscall type, not the task
