However I'll try to write an addon patch to your patch series. Maybe we can
still get rid of compat_wrapper.c in a way which makes both of us happy.
Also.. the idea with the alias names for compat wrappers does seem to have
the disadvantage that it will pollute /proc/kallsyms for example.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I will be able to come up with something this week
though.
Great, I'm looking forward...
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?
