Thanks for this. It was an attempt to add generic compat_sys_sendfile()
and compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementations to be shared by
other architectures (patches for the other architectures to be pushed
separately). I'll drop them for now as PowerPC has different prototypes
and push the patches separately.
