[ Upstream commit f4f03f299a56ce4d73c5431e0327b3b6cb55ebb9 ]
The syscall_handler_t type for x86_64 was defined as 'long (*)(void)',
but always cast to 'long (*)(long, long, long, long, long, long)' before
use. This now triggers a warning (see below).
Define syscall_handler_t as the latter instead, and remove the cast.
This simplifies the code, and fixes the warning.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
