/*
* This is for COMPATIBILITY with Linux/x86 only. Linux/Alpha system
* calls return an error indication in a3. This allows arbitrary 64bit
* values to be returned in v0 (because negative values are not
* mistaken as error numbers). However, C allows only one value to
* be returned, so the interface below folds the error indication passed in
* a3 back into v0: it sets v0 to -errno if an error occurs. Thus,
* no negative 64bit numbers can be returned. To avoid this problem,
* use assembly stubs wherever possible/convenient.
*
* Usage:
*
* long syscall(syscall_number, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5, arg6)
*
* syscall_number = the index of the system call we're invoking
* arg1-arg6 = up to 6 integer arguments to the system call
*
* We need to do some arg shifting: the kernel expects the
* syscall number in v0 and the first six args in a0-a5.
