If we merge my patches, then any other system calls should get numbers
above 423 on all architectures. Part of what I did in my branch was to
add all missing calls on architectures, and then move up to a common
number for the newly added ones. Your merge works correctly, but
it works against that idea by adding new numbers that conflict with
existing ones on other architectures, e.g. 387 is already assigned
on arm, microblaze, powerpc, and sh, and 294 is assigned almost
everywhere other than the asm-generic version.
