[PATCH] tracing/syscalls: ignore numbers outside NR_syscalls' range

[Rabin Vincent]

ARM has some private syscalls (for example, set_tls(2)) which lie
outside the range of NR_syscalls.  If any of these are called while
syscall tracing is being performed, out-of-bounds array access will
occur in the ftrace and perf sys_{enter,exit} handlers.

 # trace-cmd record -e raw_syscalls:* true && trace-cmd report
 ...
 true-653   [000]   384.675777: sys_enter:            NR 192 (0, 1000, 3, 4000022, ffffffff, 0)
 true-653   [000]   384.675812: sys_exit:             NR 192 = 1995915264
 true-653   [000]   384.675971: sys_enter:            NR 983045 (76f74480, 76f74000, 76f74b28, 76f74480, 76f76f74, 1)
 true-653   [000]   384.675988: sys_exit:             NR 983045 = 0
 ...

 [   17.290866] LR is at syscall_trace_enter+0x124/0x184

Fix this by ignoring out-of-NR_syscalls-bounds syscall numbers.
