I do not think so.

I pretty much like 4fe53bf2ba0a45cd708dcd4c3e8e1950731b3d4d,
and I believe generating all syscall headers from a table
is the right thing to do.
So, it must happen.


Currently, the new syscall-y syntax can be used only for
architectures using the generic syscall table.
I wonder what we should do for the other legacy architectures.

Some years ago, I tried to unify 'archheaders' and 'asm-generic'
into a more generic rule, but I did not find a nice solution,
so I did not do anything. I need to find some way when I have time.




For the rebuild problem, I think this should work:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240717162421.1402773-1-masahiroy@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u

(I only compile-tested arch64 and riscv, but the other architectires
should be the same pattern.)
