At first glance this is not a correct patch.
UPARG allocates a buffer that is large enough to hold both the upcall
message going to userspace as well as the incoming reply message. At
first glance this patch only seems to allocate insize. It may still be
doing the right thing because insize is defined at the call level as
MAX(sizeof(inarg), sizeof(outarg)). This it looks like quite a few
changes for an untested patch and not enough for an actual cleanup of
the related code.
