The filechk macro always executes the syscalltbl script (and discards
the output if there are no changes).
Using if_changed is more efficient because it avoids running the script
when the target is up-to-date and the command remains unchanged.
All other architectures use if_changed for generating syscall headers.

The filechk_syshdr macro receives $@ in both cases, making the argument
redundant.

Building the kernel with ARCH=s390 creates a weird arch/arch/ directory.
$ find arch/arch
arch/arch
arch/arch/s390
arch/arch/s390/include
arch/arch/s390/include/generated
arch/arch/s390/include/generated/asm
arch/arch/s390/include/generated/uapi
arch/arch/s390/include/generated/uapi/asm
The root cause is 'targets' in arch/s390/kernel/syscalls/Makefile,
where the relative path is incorrect.
Strictly speaking, 'targets' was not necessary in the first place
because this Makefile uses 'filechk' instead of 'if_changed'.
However, this commit keeps it, as it will be useful when converting
'filechk' to 'if_changed' later.

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:
src := $(obj)
When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.
This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.
To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.
Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:
$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree
Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

$(shell ...) expands to empty. There is no need to assign it to _dummy.

You do not have to use define ... endef for filechk_* rules.
For simple cases, the use of assignment looks cleaner, IMHO.
I updated the usage for scripts/Kbuild.include in case somebody
misunderstands the 'define ... endif' is the requirement.

Currently, filechk unconditionally opens the first prerequisite and
redirects it as the stdin of a filechk_* rule. Hence, every target
using $(call filechk,...) must list something as the first prerequisite
even if it is unneeded.
'< $<' is actually unneeded in most cases. Each rule can explicitly
adds it if necessary.
