1. in "kernel/seccomp.c"
There are different list for a32 and LP64. I do not know we
should add a new one or align to one of them. Currently, we
align ilp32 to a32 list.
```
/*
* Secure computing mode 1 allows only read/write/exit/sigreturn.
* To be fully secure this must be combined with rlimit
* to limit the stack allocations too.
*/
static int mode1_syscalls[] = {
__NR_seccomp_read, __NR_seccomp_write, __NR_seccomp_exit, __NR_seccomp_sigreturn,
0, /* null terminated */
};

#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
static int mode1_syscalls_32[] = {
__NR_seccomp_read_32, __NR_seccomp_write_32, __NR_seccomp_exit_32, __NR_seccomp_sigreturn_32,
0, /* null terminated */
};
#endif

static void __secure_computing_strict(int this_syscall)
{
int *syscall_whitelist = mode1_syscalls;
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
if (in_compat_syscall())
syscall_whitelist = mode1_syscalls_32;
#endif
```

2. in "kernel/auditsc.c"
__audit_seccomp will print if compat or not. But in the same file,
it call syscall_get_arch() to get the architecture in which ILP32
is same as LP64.
And consequenly, do we need to split in_compat_syscall to
in_a32_compat_syscall and in_ilp32 compat_syscall?

```
void __audit_seccomp(unsigned long syscall, long signr, int code)
{
struct audit_buffer *ab;

ab = audit_log_start(NULL, GFP_KERNEL, AUDIT_SECCOMP);
if (unlikely(!ab))
return;
audit_log_task(ab);
audit_log_format(ab, " sig=%ld arch=%x syscall=%ld compat=%d ip=0x%lx code=0x%x",
signr, syscall_get_arch(), syscall,
in_compat_syscall(), KSTK_EIP(current), code);
audit_log_end(ab);
}
```

Thanks
