parentx86: don't allow tail-calls in sys_ftruncate[64]() (diff)

x86: be careful about tailcall breakage for sys_open[at] too
Came up through a quick grep for other cases similar to the ftruncate() one in commit 0a489cb3b6a7b277030cdbc97c2c65905db94536. Also, add a comment, so that people who read the code understand why we do what looks like a no-op. (Again, this won't actually matter to any sane user, since libc will save and restore the register gcc stomps on, but it's still wrong to stomp on it) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
