Consolidate off_t/off64_t syscall argument passing
This patch add three new macros (SYSCALL_LL, SYSCALL_LL64, and __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32) to use along with off_t and off64_t argument syscalls. The rationale for this change is: 1. Remove multiple implementations for the same syscall for different architectures (for instance, pread have 6 different implementations). 2. Also remove the requirement to use syscall wrappers for cancellable entrypoints. The macro usage should be used along __ALIGNMENT_ARG to follow ABI constrains for architecture where it applies. For instance, pread can be rewritten as: return SYSCALL_CANCEL (pread, fd, buf, count, __ALIGNMENT_ARG SYSCALL_LL (offset)); Another macro, SYSCALL_LL64, is provided for off64_t. The macro __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32 is used by the ABI to define is uses 64-bit register even if ABI is ILP32 (for instance x32 and mips64-n32). The changes itself are not currently used in any implementation, so no code change is expected. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/sysdep.h (__ALIGNMENT_ARG): Move definition. (__ALIGNMENT_COUNT): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sysdep.h (__ALIGNMENT_ARG): To here. (__ALIGNMENT_COUNT): Likewise. (SYSCALL_LL): New define. (SYSCALL_LL64): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/kernel-features.h: [_MIPS_SIM == _ABIO32] (__ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32): Define. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/kernel-features.h: [ILP32] (__ASUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32): Likewise.
