Currently, it's an int. This is bizarre. Fortunately, the code using it still works: ~__X32_SYSCALL_BIT is also int, so, if nr is unsigned long, then C kindly sign-extends the ~__X32_SYSCALL_BIT part, and it actually results in the desired value. This is far more subtle than it deserves to be. Syscall numbers are, for all practical purposes, unsigned long, so make __X32_SYSCALL_BIT be unsigned long.

README
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.
