I have

#define __INO_T_TYPE		__UQUAD_TYPE
#define __NLINK_T_TYPE		__UQUAD_TYPE
#define __OFF_T_TYPE		__SQUAD_TYPE

#define __UNATIVE_LONG_TYPE	__ULONGWORD_TYPE
#endif

There is one problem with:

int sysinfo(struct sysinfo *info);

struct sysinfo comes from <linux/kernel.h>:

struct sysinfo {
	long uptime;			/* Seconds since boot */
	unsigned long loads[3];		/* 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages */
	unsigned long totalram;		/* Total usable main memory size */
	unsigned long freeram;		/* Available memory size */
	unsigned long sharedram;	/* Amount of shared memory */
	unsigned long bufferram;	/* Memory used by buffers */
	unsigned long totalswap;	/* Total swap space size */
	unsigned long freeswap;		/* swap space still available */
	unsigned short procs;		/* Number of current processes */
	unsigned short pad;		/* explicit padding for m68k */
	unsigned long totalhigh;	/* Total high memory size */
	unsigned long freehigh;		/* Available high memory size */
	unsigned int mem_unit;		/* Memory unit size in bytes */
	char _f[20-2*sizeof(long)-sizeof(int)];	/* Padding: libc5 uses this.. */
};

I couldn't find a clean way to use long long for x32.  I wind up calling
compat_sys_sysinfo.  Also linux/aio_abi.h has

typedef unsigned long	aio_context_t;

I had to use compat_sys_io_setup for

int io_setup(unsigned nr_events, aio_context_t *ctxp);

Is there a way to support something similar to  __SNATIVE_LONG_TYPE
and  __UNATIVE_LONG_TYPE for kernel header files.
