Subject: [PATCHv4 14/19] kernel: add kcompat_sys_{f,}statfs64()

Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to the
compat_sys_{f,}statfs64() sycalls, as are necessary for parameter
mangling in arm64's compat handling.

Following the example of ksys_* functions, kcompat_sys_* functions are
intended to be a drop-in replacement for their compat_sys_*
counterparts, with the same calling convention.

This is necessary to enable conversion of arm64's syscall handling to
use pt_regs wrappers.
