Hi all,
I had to debug and read a lot of the low level entry code today. While
doing so two minor things jumped at me. I hope those "fixes" are
valuable. Feel free to ignore.

All return values of syscall_trace_enter() were migrated to bool in
commit 71ff30013f19 ("entry: Make return type of syscall_trace_enter() bool"),
but the function declaration has not been updated.
Fixing that up now.

The return type of syscall_enter_from_user_mode_work() was changed to
bool in the commit referenced below, see Fixes: tag.
While doing so, one caller in
syscall_enter_from_user_mode_randomize_stack() was overlooked and
stayed at the previous type: long. Updating this caller accordingly
now.
Fixes: 05c033db7e9a ("entry, treewide: Make syscall_enter_from_user_mode[_work]() indicate syscall execution")
