I have some changes I'd like to make to our syscall table that will
clash with this.
I'll try and send them today.
Ok. Are those for 5.0 or 5.1? If they are intended for 5.0, it would be
nice for me to have a branch based on 5.0-rc1 that I can put
the other patches on top of.
For 5.1.
I can put them in a topic branch for you.

We already have a gap at 366-377 from when we tried to add the split IPC
calls a few years back.
I guess I don't mind leaving that gap and using the common numbers as
you've done here.
But it would be good to add a comment pointing out that we have room
at 366 for more arch specific syscalls as well.
Ah, I missed that. I've added this to my patch now:

Thanks.
