I believe the AFS module (libafs.o) directly bangs on
sys_call_table (defined in arch/*/kernel/entry.S) on most Linux
architectures.

Very bad, because the format of it is undefined and different on some
architectures (some for example need to include the number of
arguments in each entry in the table, such as the MIPS).
