Thanks.

I've put this on fixes, but if you're trying to do that refactoring I've 
merged it in as a single patch on top of 5.15-rc1.  That's on 
palmer/riscv-clone3, in case it helps someone avoid a conflict when 
doing that refactoring.  I'd usually offer to do the refactoring, but 
I'm super buried right now with all the RISC-V stuff ;)

I want to call this fix because it's breaking my builds, these 
checksyscall warnings have recently turned into errors.
