  This is needed on top of
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-10/msg00596.html and
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-03/msg00586.html to fix the
return value of lseek64 in the error case.  Without this change it
returns 0xffffffff instead of -1.

Andreas.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/sysdep.c (__syscall_error):
	Change return type to __SYSCALL_SLONG_TYPE.

Is there an existing testcase in the glibc testsuite that would have 
failed for this issue, given the AArch64 ILP32 patches without this extra 
patch?  If not, could one be added?

There's a large pile of AArch64 ILP32 patches in patchwork.  Some had 
review comments from various people and need revision, but I think a lot 
may not have been reviewed (and some may be waiting for kernel changes to 
go in before anything can happen).
