Yes. COMPAT_SHMLBA is 4 pages, and it's aarch32-only limitation.

OK

Yes, we need. Otherwise we have circular dependency like this:
arch/arm64/kernel/sys_ilp32.c:60:0: warning: "__SC_WRAP" redefined
 #define __SC_WRAP(nr, sym) [nr] = compat_##sym,
  ^
  In file included from include/asm-generic/unistd.h:1:0,
                   from ./arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h:16,
                   from ./arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd.h:62,
                   from ./include/uapi/linux/unistd.h:7,
                   from include/linux/syscalls.h:23,
                   from arch/arm64/kernel/sys_ilp32.c:30:
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:33:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
 #define __SC_WRAP __SYSCALL

Defining __SYSCALL_COMPAT at the top of the file does not help much.
