System call table generation script must be run to gener-
ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h files.
This patch will have changes which will invokes the script.
This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table-
_32/64/c32/spu.h files by the syscall table generation
script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files
against the removed files must be identical.
The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/-
asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file
will be included by kernel/systbl.S file.

Currently the select system call is wired up with the SYSX_SPU()
macro. The SYSX_SPU() is not handled by systbl_chk.c, which means the
syscall number for select is not checked.
That hides the fact that the syscall number for select is actually
__NR__newselect not __NR_select.
In a following patch we'd like to drop ppc32_select() which means
select will become a regular COMPAT_SYS_SPU() syscall. But
COMPAT_SYS_SPU() can't deal with the fact that the syscall number is
actually __NR__newselect. We also can't just redefine __NR_select
because that's still used for the old select call.
So add a new COMPAT_NEW_SPU() that does the same thing as
COMPAT_SYS_SPU() except it encodes that we're using the new number.

Most architectures use NR_syscalls as the #define for the number of syscalls.
We use __NR_syscalls, and then define NR_syscalls as __NR_syscalls.
__NR_syscalls is not used outside arch code, whereas NR_syscalls is. So as
NR_syscalls must be defined and __NR_syscalls does not, replace __NR_syscalls
with NR_syscalls.

We currently have a "special" syscall for switching endianness. This is
syscall number 0x1ebe, which is handled explicitly in the 64-bit syscall
exception entry.
That has a few problems, firstly the syscall number is outside of the
usual range, which confuses various tools. For example strace doesn't
recognise the syscall at all.
Secondly it's handled explicitly as a special case in the syscall
exception entry, which is complicated enough without it.
As a first step toward removing the special syscall, we need to add a
regular syscall that implements the same functionality.
The logic is simple, it simply toggles the MSR_LE bit in the userspace
MSR. This is the same as the special syscall, with the caveat that the
special syscall clobbers fewer registers.
This version clobbers r9-r12, XER, CTR, and CR0-1,5-7.

Also check that __NR_syscalls has been updated appropriately.
Hopefully this will catch any out of order additions to the
table in the future.
