Subject: [PATCH 0/6] fs: deduplicate compat logic

From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@...gle.com>

Use in_compat_syscall() to differentiate compat handling exactly
where needed, including in nested function calls. Then remove
duplicated code in callers.

Changes
  RFC[1]->v1
  - remove kselftest dependency on variant support in teardown
    (patch is out for review, not available in linux-next/akpm yet)
  - add patch 5: deduplicate set_user_sigmask compat handling
  - add patch 6: deduplicate io_pgetevents sigmask compat handling

[1] RFC: https://github.com/wdebruij/linux-next-mirror/tree/select-compat-1

Willem de Bruijn (6):
  selftests/filesystems: add initial select and poll selftest
  select: deduplicate compat logic
  ppoll: deduplicate compat logic
  epoll: deduplicate compat logic
  compat: add set_maybe_compat_user_sigmask helper
  io_pgetevents: deduplicate compat logic
