Subject: x86, vm86: fix VM86 syscalls: use SYSCALL_DEFINEx(...)
From: Alexander van Heukelum <heukelum@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 5522ddb3fc0dfd4a503c8278eafd88c9f2d3fada upstream.
Commit 49cb25e9290 x86: 'get rid of pt_regs argument in vm86/vm86old'
got rid of the pt_regs stub for sys_vm86old and sys_vm86. The functions
were, however, not changed to use the calling convention for syscalls.
[AV: killed asmlinkage_protect() - it's done automatically now]
