The following test fails on the 64-bit kernel:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <errno.h>

main(void)
{
        int ret;

        ret = execve("/bin/ls", NULL, NULL);
        printf("ret = %d, errno = %d\n", ret, errno);
}


The problem is that "nargs" in arch/mips64/kernel/linux32.c fails when
argv is NULL, the patch below should fix the problem:

I just found another problem in the linux32.c file.
I believe the "flock32" structure has been copied from other architecture, but we
are little bit different, so it need a fix.
The patch below should fix that problem, please notice it also include the
previous patch I send.

Maybe it would be even better to put the "flock32" structure definition in
include/asm-mips64/fcntl.h instead.

 How about just:

	if (!arg)
		return 0;

at the top?  Gcc should optimize it to a single branch, likely not taken,
and a register move.

Right.  Coincidentally this is also what was done to the IA64 port where
this code did originate.

Ralf, I can see you check in the fix Maciej suggested, thanks.
But what about the flock32 structure, will you fix that too ?

Yep, did that.  The patch I'm actually going to check in has become quite
a bit larger as I did the quite some cleanup to that file.
