[RFC PATCH 1/5] syscall: Allow configure used system calls

[Zhangjin Wu]

A new CONFIG_SYSCALLS_USED is added to configure the system calls used
in a target system (especially for the ultra small embedded systems),
the other system calls will be disabled.

If further enabling CONFIG_HAVE_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION, the other
ones (if also not used by kernel itself) will be removed automatically.

The used system calls should be listed one by one like this:

    write exit reboot

The architecture should implement it and then select the
HAVE_SYSCALLS_USED option.
