compat: remove some compat entry points

2021-09-08T22:32:35+00:00

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

exit/bdflush: Remove the deprecated bdflush system call

2021-07-12T20:17:47+00:00

The bdflush system call has been deprecated for a very long time.
Recently Michael Schmitz tested[1] and found that the last known
caller of of the bdflush system call is unaffected by it's removal.

Since the code is not needed delete it.

mips: syscalls: define syscall offsets directly in

2021-06-01T09:17:24+00:00

There is no good reason to generate the syscall offset macros by
scripting since they are not derived from the syscall tables.

Define __NR_*_Linux macros directly in arch/mips/include/asm/unistd.h,
and clean up the Makefile and the shell script.

quota: Disable quotactl_path syscall

2021-05-17T12:39:56+00:00

In commit fa8b90070a80 ("quota: wire up quotactl_path") we have wired up
new quotactl_path syscall. However some people in LWN discussion have
objected that the path based syscall is missing dirfd and flags argument
which is mostly standard for contemporary path based syscalls. Indeed
they have a point and after a discussion with Christian Brauner and
Sascha Hauer I've decided to disable the syscall for now and update its
API. Since there is no userspace currently using that syscall and it
hasn't been released in any major release, we should be fine.
