AFAIK, without guarantees. I used a list from Jamie Lokier and then
went thru bunches of source files & syscalls myself and came up with
these.

There are still some syscall prototypes that are declared as int
instead of long, but I can't fix them tonight (zzz). Examples:

sys_sched_setaffinity
arch/sparc64/, arch/ppc64/, arch/s390x/ (FIX PROTO)
sys_sched_getaffinity
arch/sparc64/, arch/ppc64/, arch/s390x/ (FIX PROTO)
sys_remap_file_pages
arch/sparc/ (FIX PROTO)
sys_lookup_dcookie
arch/sparc64/, arch/ppc64/, arch/parisc/ (FIX PROTO)

That's all that I know of.
