On sparc64 compat-enabled kernels, any task can make 32-bit and
64-bit syscalls. is_compat_task returns true in 32-bit tasks, which
does not necessarily imply that the current syscall is 32-bit.
Provide an in_compat_syscall implementation that checks whether the
current syscall is compat.
As far as I know, sparc is the only architecture on which
is_compat_task checks the compat status of the task and on which the
compat status of a syscall can differ from the compat status of the
task. On x86, is_compat_task checks the syscall type, not the task
type.
