[PATCH v6 18/25] powerpc: Use common syscall handler type

[Rohan McLure]

Cause syscall handlers to be typed as follows when called indirectly
throughout the kernel. This is to allow for better type checking.

typedef long (*syscall_fn)(unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long,
                           unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long);

Since both 32 and 64-bit abis allow for at least the first six
machine-word length parameters to a function to be passed by registers,
even handlers which admit fewer than six parameters may be viewed as
having the above type.

Coercing syscalls to syscall_fn requires a cast to void* to avoid
-Wcast-function-type.

Fixup comparisons in VDSO to avoid pointer-integer comparison. Introduce
explicit cast on systems with SPUs.

V2: New patch.
V3: Remove unnecessary cast from const syscall_fn to syscall_fn
V5: Update patch desctiption.
V6: Remove syscall_fn typedef in syscall.c. Comment void* cast.
