When cross-compiling the bpf sample map_perf_test for aarch64, I find that
__NR_getpgrp is undefined. This causes build errors. Fix it by allowing the
deprecated syscall in the sample.

So the only arch that sets __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED
is score:

  $ git grep -n __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED
  arch/score/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h:7:#define __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED
  include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:837:#ifdef __ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED
  include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:899:#endif /* 
__ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED */

But even if this would make aarch64 compile, the syscall
numbers don't match up:

  $ git grep -n __NR_getpgrp include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h
  include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:841:#define __NR_getpgrp 1060
  include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h:843:__SYSCALL(__NR_getpgrp, sys_getpgrp)

The only thing that can be found on arm64 is:

  $ git grep -n __NR_getpgrp arch/arm64/
  arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:154:#define __NR_getpgrp 65
  arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:155:__SYSCALL(__NR_getpgrp, sys_getpgrp)

In arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd.h, it does include the
uapi/asm/unistd.h when compat is not set, but without the
__ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_DEPRECATED. That doesn't look correct
unless I'm missing something, hmm, can't we just attach the
kprobes to a different syscall, one that is not deprecated,
so that we don't run into this in the first place?

Thanks,
Daniel
