OK, thank you.

After commit 80d7da1cac62 ("asm-generic: Drop getrlimit and setrlimit
syscalls from default list"), new architectures won't need to include
getrlimit and setrlimit, they are superseded with prlimit64.

In order to maintain compatibility for the new architectures, such as
LoongArch which does not define __NR_getrlimit, it is better to use
__NR_prlimit64 instead of __NR_getrlimit in user_ringbuf.c to fix the
build error.

-       syscall(__NR_getrlimit);
+       syscall(__NR_prlimit64);

        return NULL;
 }

I will test it and then send v2. If you have more suggestions,
please let me know.

Thanks,
