[PATCH] x86: remove the x32 syscall bitmask from syscall_get_nr()

2013-02-15 Thread Paul Moore
Commit fca460f95e928bae373daa8295877b6905bc62b8 simplified the x32 implementation by creating a syscall bitmask, equal to 0x4000, that could be applied to x32 syscalls such that the masked syscall number would be the same as a x86_64 syscall. While that patch was a nice way to simplify the cod
