A couple of architectures including arm64 already implement the
kexec_file_load system call, on many others we have assigned a system
call number for it, but not implemented it yet.

Adding the number in arch/arm/ lets us use the system call on arm64
systems in compat mode, and also reduces the number of differences
between architectures. If we want to implement kexec_file_load on ARM
in the future, the number assignment means that kexec tools can already
be built with the now current set of kernel headers.

Yes, I already checked.  If CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is not set, then
kernel/kexec_file.c is not built, and we fall back to the stub
in kernel/sys_ni.c.
