    ARM: convert to generated system call tables · 96a8fae0

    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.
