-mm has already been updated to do exactly that. Syscall numbers end
up hardcoded into userland binaries/libs somewhere, so it's not a
bugfix but certainly it's a nice cleanup to remove the whole #ifdef block.

Andre, could you see if linux-next (which includes -mm) works for you
by just running "cd tools/testing/selftests/vm/ && make"? If there's
any further change required could you diff it against linux-next?

Thanks!
Andrea
