Bah.I don't know how I managed to miss that part and interestingly
enough that none of the robots caught that either

Hrm.

What's the upcoming problem?

I don't think we want that in general. The current variant is perfectly
fine for everything except the 32bit fast syscall nonsense. Also
irqentry_entry/exit is not equivalent to the syscall_enter/exit
counterparts.

I had that in one of the early versions and was advised to drop that.

It's not unfixable and the fix is close to what you suggested above
except that it preserves the straight forward stuff for the !32bit fast
syscall case. Completely untested patch below. I run proper tests
tomorrow with brain awake.

Thanks,
