Commit Message

Currently the set of available syscalls is generated from the
target compilers default <asm-generic/unistd.h>
(i.e. /usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h on a self-hosted system).
The numeric values are then generated by the host compiler using
tools/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h .

This leads to some nasty version skew problems (including failed perf
builds if you are running a bleeding edge distro and want to build an
older version of perf for testing).

Let's make the target compiler use the local headers too.

It shouldn't, Kim?

Adding a bit more detail... if I take that last line from mksyscalltbl
and run it without -dM we get the following:

ash$ gcc -E -x c $KDIR/tools/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h | grep '^#'
# 1 "../arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command-line>"
# 31 "<command-line>"
# 1 "/usr/include/stdc-predef.h" 1 3 4
# 32 "<command-line>" 2
# 1 "../arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h"
# 21 "../arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h"
# 1 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 1 3 4
# 1 "/usr/include/asm/bitsperlong.h" 1 3 4
# 22 "/usr/include/asm/bitsperlong.h" 3 4
# 1 "/usr/include/asm-generic/bitsperlong.h" 1 3 4
# 23 "/usr/include/asm/bitsperlong.h" 2 3 4
# 3 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 2 3 4
# 34 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 3 4
# 502 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 3 4
# 707 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 3 4
# 828 "/usr/include/asm-generic/unistd.h" 3 4
# 21 "../arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h" 2

With the extra -I we pick up the included file from the $KDIR/tools
instead.
