Miklos,

this is from your commit 18e480aa07f78 ("parisc: add renameat2
syscall") which was acked by Helge Deller:

only s390 seems to need a compat wrapper, and s390 is kind of odd in
many respects, so I suspect renameat2 should just use ENTRY_SAME() on
parisc, but without any way to *test* it I won't apply the patch.

Guenter, I assume that changing the

ENTRY_COMP(renameat2)

line in arch/parisc/kernel/syscall_table.S to use ENTRY_SAME() at
least fixes the compile error?
