There are 11 copies of arch/*/kernel/syscalls/Makefile that all implement the same basic logic in a somewhat awkward way. I tried out various ways of unifying the existing copies and ended up with something that hooks into the logic for generating the redirections to asm-generic headers. This gives a nicer syntax of being able to list the generated files in $(syscall-y) inside of arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild instead of both $(generated-y) in that place and also in another Makefile. The configuration for which syscall.tbl file to use and which ABIs to enable is now done in arch/*/kernel/Makefile.syscalls. I have done patches for all architectures and made sure that the new generic rules implement a superset of all the architecture specific corner cases. ince the header file is not specific to asm-generic/*.h redirects now, I ended up renaming the file to scripts/Makefile.asm-headers.

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 reStructuredText 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.
