Subject: Fix "Remove the use of _syscallX macros in UML"
From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@xxxxxxxx>

Fix commit 5f4c6bc1f369f20807a8e753c2308d1629478c61: it spits out warnings
about missing syscall prototype (it is in <unistd.h>) and it does not
recognize that two uses of _syscallX are to be resolved against kernel
headers in the source tree, not against _syscallX; they in fact do not
compile and would not work anyway.

If _syscallX macros will be removed from the kernel tree altogether, the
only reasonable solution for that piece of code is switching to open-coded
inline assembly (it's remapping the whole executable from memory, except
the page containing this code).
