Agreed. I think all architectures are moving that way now, so we should
really try to get all cases right now.

I've done a complete list of what the architectures (see
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18GxXEHE2ywnSr-SPoGFd1ABz6wEM1ex-JMu5lEraaH8/ )

We have these categories:

1. uses IPC_PARSE_VERSION with sys_ipc, and has just introduced
   separate syscalls:

    arm, avr32, powerpc, x86-32

2. uses IPC_PARSE_VERSION with sys_ipc, and has not yet introduced
   separate syscalls (currently producing a compile warning):

   cris, frv, m32r, m68k, mips (o32), mn10300, s390, sh32, sparc

3. uses IPC_PARSE_VERSION with separate syscalls:

   alpha, blackfin, microblaze, mips (n32/64), xtensa

4a. only new-style IPC with separate syscalls:

    ia64, parisc, sh64

4b. only new-style IPC with separate syscalls, using generic syscall
    table:

    arc, arm64, c6x, h8300, hexagon, metag, nios2, openrisc, score,
    tile, unicore32

So we should probably fix 1. and 2. before it's too late, but make
sure we don't break 3. in the process.
