Could we rename __syscall_return to IS_SYS_ERR (or whatever) and force
kernel syscall users to do the check? That way we could eliminate errno
s/users/user/ .. there's one left that should die out soon ;)
Only one in unistd.h, but throughout the kernel there are quite a few
unless I'm missing something here:
doener@atjola:~/src/kernel/linux-2.6$ grep \ _syscall * -R | \
grep -v define\\\|undef\\\|clobber | wc -l
116

Are these just going to be replaced by calls to sys_whatever?
