[PATCH v6 19/25] powerpc: Remove high-order word clearing on compat syscall entry

[Rohan McLure]

Remove explicit clearing of the high order-word of user parameters when
handling compatibility syscalls in system_call_exception. The
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx macros handle this clearing through an
explicit cast to the signature type of the target handler.
