These are all handled correctly when calling the native
system call entry point, so remove the special cases.

That conflicts with

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210517073815.97426-1-masahiroy@kernel.org/ (local)

which I'm picking up. We have more changes in that area coming in.
Ok, thanks for the heads-up. I'll try a merge or rebase to see how this can be
handled. If both the drivers/net and drivers/media get picked up for 5.14, maybe
the rebased patches can go through -mm on top, along with the final
removal of compat_alloc_user_space()/copy_in_user(). If not, I suppose these
four patches can also wait another release.
