Hi Andy,

Thanks for your review and the comments, I'll address them in a next 
iteration. Do you have any other comments on the complete patchset?

Indeed ... I've tried with x86_64 and 32-bit x86, but not x32 syscalls. 
I will review that part.

Yes, that should make the intention more clear.

Thanks for pointing this out - I'll need to review this part of code a 
bit more.
