Second thoughts. So this adds 28 /* fall through */ comments. Now I
appreciate the effort, but can we pretty please look at the code in
question and figure out whether the implementation makes sense in the first
place before adding falltrough comments blindly?

The whole exercise can be simplified. Untested patch below.

Looking at that stuff makes me wonder about two things:

 1) The third argument of get/set(), i.e. the argument offset, is 0 on all
    call sites. Do we need it at all?

 2) syscall_set_arguments() has been introduced in 2008 and we still have
    no caller. Instead of polishing it, can it be removed completely or are
    there plans to actually use it?

Thanks,

	tglx
