Reading xfrm (ipsec) code I've found such code:

: #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
:         if (in_compat_syscall())
:                 return -EOPNOTSUPP;
: #endif

While I can read that it's false on native i386, it's a bit misleading
and in result it's better to introduce a helper for that.
Grepping other code, I've found that there are already such helpers.
And the uniq behavior of in_compat_syscall() on x86 is disturbing.

Adjusting it to generic with the following..

(on the first non-resend RFC I managed to forget Cc'ing Andy..
 sorry about that, was sure I did add him).
