Just checked some archs which have HAVE_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINTS=y and could
call compat_* syscalls when run 32bit process on 64bit kernel, I don't
find any special code against FTRACE_SYSCALLS. So that means we could
not trace compat syscalls even if we want to(Am I missing something?).
So I think if we want to trace it, the easy way is just like what we have
done on normal syscalls, IOW, we could SYSCALL_DEFINE all of the compat
syscalls.

Thought?

BTW, I have make a trival patch to introduce COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE, it's just
for calling of inspiration(no test no build, and I leave SYSCALL_METADATA
etc untouched.)

Thanks,
Yong
