For 64bit kernel, do we intend to have one syscall table that support o32, n32 
and n64 altogether?  Or we will have multiple tables for them?

It seems n32 can be naturally implemented through n64 syscalls, although I am 
sure there are some nasty details to work out.

Where can I find n32/n64 spec?
