True, I'll give it a spin.

I'd rather keep it in common code as that allows all the low-level
exec stuff to be marked static, and avoid us growing new pointless
compat variants through copy and paste.

That errors out with:

ld: arch/x86/entry/syscall_x32.o:(.rodata+0x1040): undefined reference to
`__x32_sys_execve'
ld: arch/x86/entry/syscall_x32.o:(.rodata+0x1108): undefined reference to
`__x32_sys_execveat'
make: *** [Makefile:1139: vmlinux] Error 1
