[PATCH v2 2/7] ia64: replace NR_syscalls macro from asm/unistd.h

[Firoz Khan]

NR_syscalls macro holds the number of system call exist in IA64
architecture. This macro is currently the part of asm/unistd.h
file. We have to change the value of NR_syscalls, if we add or
delete a system call.

One of the patch in this patch series has a script which will
generate a uapi header based on syscall.tbl file. The syscall.tbl
file contains the number of system call information. So we have
two option to update NR_syscalls value.

1. Update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h manually by counting the
   no.of system calls. No need to update NR_syscalls until we
   either add a new system call or delete an existing system
   call.

2. We can keep this feature it above mentioned script, that'll
   count the number of syscalls and keep it in a generated file.
   In this case we don't need to explicitly update NR_syscalls
   in asm/unistd.h file.

The 2nd option will be the recommended one. For that, I come up
with another macro - __NR_syscalls which will be updated by the
script and it will be present in uapi/asm/unistd.h. The macro
name changed form NR_syscalls to __NR_syscalls for making the
name convention same across all architecture. While __NR_syscalls
isn't strictly part of the uapi, having it as part of the generated
header to simplifies the implementation. We also need to enclose
this macro with #ifdef __KERNEL__ to avoid side effects.
