Why do you need this cast to (int)?
OK. I will remove it because gcc doesn't complain about it anyway.
Also, it's probably better to check for -1 explicitly here.
I wil fix it.
I'm slightly surprised that we do the secure computing check first. Doesn't this allow a debugger to change the syscall to something else after we've decided that it's ok?
To be honest, I just followed other architectures' implementation. Can you elaborate any use case that you have in your mind?
