Looks good to me, but

It would be nicer to use compat_size_t instead of u32 for annotation
purposes. Obviously both of them are defined as unsigned int, so
that is no functional change.

This should ideally use "(unsigned long)compat_ptr(arg)" instead of
just arg. Also doesn't matter on powerpc, but it's better to do
it the strict way.
