An unfortunate consequence of having a strong typing for the input
values to the SMC call is that it also affects the type of the
return values, limiting r0 to 32 bits and r{1,2,3} to whatever
was passed as an input. >
Let's turn everything into "unsigned long", which satisfies the
requirements of both architectures, and allows for the full
range of return values.
Maybe it better to use register_t then? By definition register_t has the same size as a CPU register and SMC uses CPU registers to pass parameters/return values.

Do you really want to silently drop upper 32 bits of the argument?
I know, that SMCCC states that function id is a 32-bit value,
but I don't think that it is a good place to enforce this
behavior.
I think it is better to allow user to shoot in his leg in this case.
