[PATCH 1/2] powerpc/32: fix syscall wrappers with 64-bit arguments of unaligned register-pairs

powerpc 32-bit system call (and function) calling convention for 64-bit
arguments requires the next available odd-pair (two sequential registers
with the first being odd-numbered) from the standard register argument
allocation.

The first argument register is r3, so a 64-bit argument that appears at
an even position in the argument list must skip a register (unless there
were preceeding 64-bit arguments, which might throw things off). This
requires non-standard compat definitions to deal with the holes in the
argument register allocation.

With pt_regs syscall wrappers which use a standard mapper to map pt_regs
GPRs to function arguments, 32-bit kernels hit the same basic problem,
the standard definitions don't cope with the unused argument registers.

Fix this by having 32-bit kernels share those syscall definitions with
compat.

Thanks to Jason for spending a lot of time finding and bisecting this and
developing a trivial reproducer. The perfect bug report.

---
Since posting the patch in the bug thread:
- dropped sync_file_range2 from the ppc32 syscalls.
- updated some comments on sys_ppc32.c, which now has a different
  purpose.
- still have not explicitly tested all convrted syscalls on ppc32
  (I don't have a great ppc32 environment to test such things,
  will have to try rectify that...).
- Build fixes from mpe.
- Thanks to jms and mpe for helping with debugging.

Thanks,
Nick
