Currently exec-target.c file is linked as static and this
post a requirement to install libc dev package to build.
Without it, build-breaks when compiling selftest/powerpc/benchmark.
CC exec_target
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
exec_target.c is using "syscall" library function which
could be replaced with a inline assembly and the same is
proposed as a fix here.

That looks ok because SYS_exit() is not supposed to return, but in the
general case you should take a lot more precautions regarding which
registers get clobbered when using sc.
Maybe it is worth a comment.
