improve sys_newuname() for compat architectures
On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the
reported machine in uname with the 32-bit value. Instead of doing this
separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in
<asm/compat.h> and apply it directly in sys_newuname().
