[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.
