The futex_compat code currently mixes pointers to robust_list
and compat_robust_list for no apparent reason other than
requiring extra typecasts. It also uses an extra argument
to fetch_robust_entry() that is not useful but has caused
bugs to be introduced before.
Clean up the code to get rid of all this and make the compat
version look more like the native one.
