x86_64 allmodconfig:

kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_external32':
kernel/signal.c:3299:7: error: 'x32_ABI' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'CTL_ABI'?
if (x32_ABI) {
^~~~~~~

I looked at fixing it but surely this sort of thing:


int copy_siginfo_to_user32(struct compat_siginfo __user *to,
const struct kernel_siginfo *from)
#if defined(CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI) || defined(CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION)
{
return __copy_siginfo_to_user32(to, from, in_x32_syscall());
}
int __copy_siginfo_to_user32(struct compat_siginfo __user *to,
const struct kernel_siginfo *from, bool x32_ABI)
#endif
{
...


is too ugly to live?
