[PATCH v4 09/20] powerpc: Enable compile-time check for syscall handlers

The table of syscall handlers and registered compatibility syscall handlers has in past been produced using assembly, with function references resolved at link time. This moves link-time errors to compile-time, by rewriting systbl.S in C, and including the linux/syscalls.h, linux/compat.h and asm/s
