include/linux/compat.h
#ifndef __SC_DELOUSE
#define __SC_DELOUSE(t,v) ((t)(unsigned long)(v)) #endif

We couldn't make sure that all compat syscall arguments has
32 bit types with default definition.
Is there any reason that this patch is only applied for s390?

Please let me know if I miss something.
