This one should actually be using the SYSCALL_DEFINE syntax, so that it
can be used with CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS.
See eg. our mmap:
SYSCALL_DEFINE6(mmap, unsigned long, addr, size_t, len,
unsigned long, prot, unsigned long, flags,
unsigned long, fd, off_t, offset)
{
return do_mmap2(addr, len, prot, flags, fd, offset, PAGE_SHIFT);
}
We probably still need this patch, but I'm not entirely sure because the
SYSCALL_DEFINE macro does all sorts of shenanigans.
cheers
