One of my goals is to disentangle the {INTERNAL,INLINE}_SYSCALL macros
to consolidate their definitions and move the arch-specific bits to
inline functions instead of macros. Another one is to remove the
requirement to define similar assembly macros to be used by the
auto-generated one.
The idea is an architecture will just need to define a set of
inline_syscall{0-6} functions.
