x86: remove the x32 syscall bitmask from syscall_get_nr()
Commit fca460f9 simplified the x32 implementation by creating a syscall bitmask, equal to 0x40000000, that could be applied to x32 syscalls such that the masked syscall number would be the same as a x86_64 syscall. While that patch was a nice way to simplify the code, it went a bit too far by adding the mask to syscall_get_nr(); returning the masked syscall numbers can cause confusion with callers that expect syscall numbers matching the x32 ABI, e.g. unmasked syscall numbers. This patch fixes this by simply removing the mask from syscall_get_nr() while preserving the other changes from the original commit. While there are several syscall_get_nr() callers in the kernel, most simply check that the syscall number is greater than zero, in this case this patch will have no effect. Of those remaining callers, they appear to be few, seccomp and ftrace, and from my testing of seccomp without this patch the original commit definitely breaks things; the seccomp filter does not correctly filter the syscalls due to the difference in syscall numbers in the BPF filter and the value from syscall_get_nr(). Applying this patch restores the seccomp BPF filter functionality on x32. I've tested this patch with the seccomp BPF filters as well as ftrace and everything looks reasonable to me; needless to say general usage seemed fine as well.
