Hi Yuri,

after playing around with this a bit I couldn't come up with a solution
that I'm happy with, unfortunately.

So in order to make some progress here I'd vote that we simply move the
existing compat_wrapper.c from arch/s390 to common code like you did in
your first approach and leave the existing SYSCALL macros alone.

That will have hardly any effect to anybody else and your problem is
solved while s390 still works.

Does that make sense?
