The current syscall wrapper macros break 64-bit arguments on
rv32 because they only guarantee the first N input registers are
passed to syscalls that accept N arguments. According to the
calling convention, values twice the word size reside in register
pairs and as a result, syscall arguments don't always have a
direct register mapping on rv32.
Instead of using `__MAP(x,__SC_LONG,__VA_ARGS__)` to declare the
type of the `__se(_compat)_sys_*` functions on rv32, change the
function declarations to accept `ulong` arguments and alias them
to the actual syscall implementations, similarly to the existing
macros in include/linux/syscalls.h. This matches previous
behavior and ensures registers are passed to syscalls as-is, no
matter which argument types they expect.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
