338035edc9 arm: Wire up restartable sequences system call
Wire up the rseq system call on 32-bit ARM.

This provides an ABI improving the speed of a user-space getcpu
operation on ARM by skipping the getcpu system call on the fast path, as
well as improving the speed of user-space operations on per-cpu data
compared to using load-linked/store-conditional.

219622b7b3 ARM: wire up new pkey syscalls
Wire up the new pkey syscalls for ARM.  This illustrates the ease that
the generated/tabular approach gives us: adding new system calls
becomes much easier, and all the dependencies are automatically handled
for the update.

96a8fae0fe ARM: convert to generated system call tables
Convert ARM to use a similar mechanism to x86 to generate the unistd.h
system call numbers and the various kernel system call tables.  This
means that rather than having to edit three places (asm/unistd.h for
the total number of system calls, uapi/asm/unistd.h for the system call
numbers, and arch/arm/kernel/calls.S for the call table) we have only
one place to edit, making the process much more simple.

The scripts have knowledge of the table padding requirements, so there's
no need to worry about __NR_syscalls not fitting within the immediate
constant field of ALU instructions anymore.
