Thanks for handling this, Stephen.

I don't know what the best way to avoid this is. Sometimes (and
_sometimes_ is the problem) new syscalls are added through another
tree. Other times, they're added to only x86 and amd64 or something
and leave us to find out later.

So, should all syscall additions go through the respective arch trees,
or should syscall additions make sure to include all architectures?

Thanks,
Matt
