Rather than providing more wrappers for 6-arg syscalls, arrange for
them to be supported as standard. This just means that we always
store the 6th argument on the stack, rather than in the wrappers.
This means we eliminate the wrappers for:
* sys_futex
* sys_arm_fadvise64_64
* sys_mbind
* sys_ipc

Patch from George G. Davis
As pointed out be Matthew Klahn <MKLAHN@motorola.com>, some sys_ipc()
call options require six args, e.g. SEMTIMEDOP. This patch adds an ARM sys_ipc_wrapper to save the sys_ipc() 'fifth' arg on the stack.

sys_mbind is a 6-arg syscall, hence needs wrapping to save the
sixth argument.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre
The prototype for sys_fadvise64_64() is:
long sys_fadvise64_64(int fd, loff_t offset, loff_t len, int advice)
The argument list is therefore as follows on legacy ABI:
fd: type int (r0)
offset: type long long (r1-r2)
len: type long long (r3-sp[0])
advice: type int (sp[4])
With EABI this becomes:
fd: type int (r0)
offset: type long long (r2-r3)
len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4])
advice: type int (sp[8])
Not only do we have ABI differences here, but the EABI version requires
one additional word on the syscall stack.
To avoid the ABI mismatch and the extra stack space required with EABI
this syscall is now defined with a different argument ordering
on ARM as follows:
long sys_arm_fadvise64_64(int fd, int advice, loff_t offset, loff_t len)
This gives us the following ABI independent argument distribution:
fd: type int (r0)
advice: type int (r1)
offset: type long long (r2-r3)
len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4])
Now, since the syscall entry code takes care of 5 registers only by
default including the store of r4 to the stack, we need a wrapper to
store r5 to the stack as well. Because that wrapper was missing and was
always required this means that sys_fadvise64_64 never worked on ARM and
therefore we can safely reuse its syscall number for our new
sys_arm_fadvise64_64 interface.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
