[Resend PATCH v2 0/2] ABI: handle 32-bit off_t for 32-bit and compat ABIs
From: Yury Norov

32-bit off_t is supported only for old 32-bit and compat ABIs. New ABIs
are 64-bit length only. This patchset makes 64-bit length the default
for off_t, and reverts it for old architectures where needed. It does not
change the behaviour of existing code.
First patch makes all compat users of generic unistd.h to use non-compat
versions of openat and open_by_handle_at. Tile that requires old behaviour
is turned around.
Second patch introduces ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T config option, disabled by default,
but enables it explicitly for existing 32-bit architectures.

This is the same series that I sent in Dec 29. In arm64 ilp32 this patches are
melded, but Chris asked to split it. So I decided to resend old series. Here is
no changes, it's only rebased on 4.9-rc4.

compat ABI: use non-compat openat and open_by_handle_at variants
32-bit ABI: introduce ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T config option
