These are basically shared code for native/32bit compat code, but as
CONFIG_COMPAT is a bool there's no need to export them.

do_select at least used to be used by the xABI compatibility modules, is
that no longer the case ?

For Sparc, the only inkernel one that can be modular - no. For the x86
ABI modules half of the syscalls needs to be exported so the patch is
huge anyway.

I thought those no longer existed; lots of other stuff is missing for
those as well for sure.
