  This patches adds the x32 modification required for the BZ#12683.
It follows the x86_64-x32 ABI and pointers are zero-extended.
However, compiler may not see such cases and accuse a cast from pointer
to integer of different size and for such cases the warning is
explict disabled.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu-x32.

MIPS n32 uses an intermediate cast to (__typeof__ ((X) - (X))), so that a 
conversion to a different size is never directly from a pointer type.  
Does something like that help here to avoid the warning without needing to 
use diagnostic pragmas?

The intermediate cast to (__typeof__ ((X) - (X))) is not suffice for x32
(the resulting argumetn it will passed as function argument instead of
asm input).  I have replaced with:

  #define __SSC(__x)                                              \
  ({                                                            \
    __syscall_arg_t __arg = sizeof (1 ? (__x) : 0ULL) < 8       \
      ? (unsigned long int) (uintptr_t)(__x)                    \
      : (__syscall_arg_t) (__typeof__ ((__x) - (__x))) (__x);   \
    __arg;                                                      \
  })

Have you looked at libc-pointer-arith.h?

That was my first approach, by using cast_to_integer macro. I tried to
change its internals to zero extend pointers correctly, but I couldn't
find a easier way without also adding the cast point suppression
warning in this original patch.

Have you looked at sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/sysdep.h?

Yes, I was the one that actually added them (78ca091cdd2). But for this
case, the issue is it requires another implicit cast on the
__syscall_cancel call itself.  The difference here is the call is not
done through an asm input anymore.

Do you have a git branch I can try?
