asmlinkage is used in front of the each system call prototype. For x86 arch it indicates that the the parameters are on stack instead of the registers and for x86_64 arch the parameters are in registers only.
Doubt i have is whats the need for 32-bit intel arch to put parameters on stack and not registers in a way similar to x86_64?
