in_compat_syscall() already has a reasonable stub, what was missing
when I created this series is the compat_long_t definition and
the compat_ptr() helper.
With patch 01/24, we can rely on the types, but I still need to add
a generic compat_ptr() implementation for non-s390 to remove the
#ifdef here.
That is probably a good idea anyway, it just needs a bit of testing.
The last time I tried this, I ran into problems with the order of compat
header inclusions on some architectures.
I've made a prototype now, will see how it goes.

changed now.
