[ARM] Add more syscalls
Add: sys_unshare sys_set_robust_list sys_get_robust_list sys_splice sys_arm_sync_file_range sys_tee sys_vmsplice sys_move_pages sys_getcpu Special note about sys_arm_sync_file_range(), which is implemented as: asmlinkage long sys_arm_sync_file_range(int fd, unsigned int flags, loff_t offset, loff_t nbytes) { return sys_sync_file_range(fd, offset, nbytes, flags); } We can't export sys_sync_file_range() directly on ARM because the argument list someone picked does not fit in the available registers. Would be nice if... there was an arch maintainer review mechanism for new syscalls before they hit the kernel. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
