Add arch_syscall_addr for arm64 and define NR_compat_syscalls, as the
number of compat syscalls for arm64 exceeds the number defined by

We may as well just define NR_compat_syscalls instead of
__NR_compat_syscalls and move the handful of users over.

I had tried to minimise the amount of arch-specific changes here - especially those that are not directly related to the proposed syscall handling change. But I agree having these 2 #defines is a bit unnecessary ...

Do we care about the compat private syscalls (from base 0x0f0000)? We
need to make sure that we exhibit the same behaviour as a native
32-bit ARM machine.

Tracing of such syscalls has been disabled for a long time (see
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=086ba77a6db0).
Apart from using non-contiguous numbers, they are not defined using standard SYSCALL macros, so they do not have any metadata generated either. My suggestion is that if you wanted those to be included in the trace then it should be done separately from these changes.
