Correct. My Ack is based on the current way things are done upstream.
It was just that linux-rt showed the issue, where the code was not as
robust as it should have been. To me this was a correctness issue, not
an issue that had to do with how things are done in linux-rt.  
I think we should at least add some BUILD_BUG_ON() that validates
offsets in syscall_tp_t matches the ones in syscall_trace_enter and
syscall_trace_exit, to fail more loudly if there is any mismatch in
the future. WDYT?
If you want to, feel free to send a patch.

As for the changes in linux-rt, they are not upstream yet. I'll have my
comments on that code when that happens.  
Ah, ok, cool. I'd appreciate you cc'ing bpf@vger.kernel.org in that
discussion, thank you!
If I remember ;-)
