Firoz Khan aff8503932 powerpc: add system call table generation support
The system call tables are in different format in all
architecture and it will be difficult to manually add or
modify the system calls in the respective files. To make
it easy by keeping a script and which will generate the
uapi header and syscall table file. This change will also
help to unify the implementation across all architectures.

The system call table generation script is added in
syscalls directory which contain the script to generate
both uapi header file and system call table files.
The syscall.tbl file will be the input for the scripts.

syscall.tbl contains the list of available system calls
along with system call number and corresponding entry point.
Add a new system call in this architecture will be possible
by adding new entry in the syscall.tbl file.

Adding a new table entry consisting of:
  	- System call number.
	- ABI.
	- System call name.
	- Entry point name.
	- Compat entry name, if required.

syscallhdr.sh and syscalltbl.sh will generate uapi header-
unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h files
respectively. File syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h is incl-
uded by syscall.S - the real system call table. Both *.sh
files will parse the content syscall.tbl to generate the
header and table files.

ARM, s390 and x86 architecuture does have similar support.
I leverage their implementation to come up with a generic
solution.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
