I don't think that's correct for these two. perf_event_open() of
course requires 'perf' support that ia64 does not have, but
at least seccomp should just work.

One comment for all pkey calls would be sufficient. More importantly
it requires hardware support that ia64 does not have AFAICT.

It certainly does not require any support from the architecture for these.

Maybe leave rseq and pkey_* commented out so we reserve
the number but don't add it for real? Maybe the ia64 maintainers
have a preference.

As asm-generic maintainer, I'd like to have the various asm/unistd.h
headers be as similar as possible and at least reserve all the
numbers even if we don't need the calls on a given architecture.
