I wonder if we'd be better off doing the in_oabi_syscall() branch in
the common code.  E.g. rename in_oabi_syscall to in_legacy_syscall and
stub it out for all other architectures.  Then just do

	if (in_oabi_syscall()
		legacy_syscall_foo_bit();
	else
		normal_syscall_foo_bit();

in common code, where so far only arm provides
legacy_syscall_foo_bit().

Tons of long lines again in this patch..
