This is a follow-up cleanup after switching to the generic syscalltbl.sh.

The old x86 specific script skipped non-existing syscalls. So, the
generated syscalls_64.h, for example, had a big hole in the syscall numbers
335-423 range. That is why there exists [0 ... __NR_*_syscall_max] =
&amp;__*_sys_ni_cyscall.

The new script, scripts/syscalltbl.sh automatically fills holes
with __SYSCALL(&lt;nr&gt;, sys_ni_syscall), hence such ugly code can
go away. The designated initializers, '[nr] =' are also unneeded.

Also, there is no need to give __NR_*_syscall_max+1 because the array
size is implied by the number of syscalls in the generated headers.
Hence, there is no need to include &lt;asm/unistd.h&gt;, either.

Many architectures duplicate similar shell scripts.

Convert x86 and UML to use scripts/syscalltbl.sh. The generic script
generates seperate headers for x86/64 and x86/x32 syscalls, while the x86
specific script coalesced them into one. Adjust the code accordingly.

<title>x86/entry/x32: Rename __x32_compat_sys_* to __x64_compat_sys_*</title>

<id>2e958a8a510d956ec8528f0bd20e309b5bb5156c</id>
<content type='text'>
The SYSCALL macros are mapped to symbols as follows:

  __SYSCALL_COMMON(nr, sym)  --&gt;  __x64_&lt;sym&gt;
  __SYSCALL_X32(nr, sym)     --&gt;  __x32_&lt;sym&gt;

Originally, the syscalls in the x32 special range (512-547) were all
compat.

This assumption is now broken after the following commits:

  55db9c0e8534 ("net: remove compat_sys_{get,set}sockopt")
  5f764d624a89 ("fs: remove the compat readv/writev syscalls")
  598b3cec831f ("fs: remove compat_sys_vmsplice")
  c3973b401ef2 ("mm: remove compat_process_vm_{readv,writev}")

Those commits redefined __x32_sys_* to __x64_sys_* because there is no stub
like __x32_sys_*.

Defining them as follows is more sensible and cleaner.

  __SYSCALL_COMMON(nr, sym)  --&gt;  __x64_&lt;sym&gt;
  __SYSCALL_X32(nr, sym)     --&gt;  __x64_&lt;sym&gt;

This works because both x86_64 and x32 use the same ABI (RDI, RSI, RDX,
R10, R8, R9)

The ugly #define __x32_sys_* will go away.

Now that the -&gt;compat_{get,set}sockopt proto_ops methods are gone
there is no good reason left to keep the compat syscalls separate.

This fixes the odd use of unsigned int for the compat_setsockopt
optlen and the missing sock_use_custom_sol_socket.

It would also easily allow running the eBPF hooks for the compat
syscalls, but such a large change in behavior does not belong into
a consolidation patch like this one.

asmlinkage is no longer required since the syscall ABI is now fully under
x86 architecture control.  This makes the 32-bit native syscalls a bit more
effecient by passing in regs via EAX instead of on the stack.
