The uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h already contains a list of compat syscalls
that should work by default, I think it would be better to use that
list and override only the ones that differ between normal compat
mode and the new mode, e.g. when you require a wrapper or want to
use the native syscall entry.

Could this be avoided by defining sigval_t in a way that is
compatible?

asmlinkage?
