Not allowed yet, these patches only allow 8,16,32. I still need to audit the whole futex core and do 'u32 -> unsigned long' (and everything else that follows from that), and only when that's done can the futex2 syscalls allow FUTEX2_64 on 64bit archs.
So for now, these patches:
- add the FUTEX2_64 flag, - add 'unsigned long' interface such that 64bit can potentiall use it, - explicitly disallow having it set.
