Like amd64, mips has two 32bit ABIs - o32 and n32. Unlike amd64,
it does not use compat_binfmt_elf.c for either of those; each
of those ABIs has a binfmt handler of its own, both very similar
to fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c. And the same technics as we use on
amd64 can be used to make fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c handle both.
* merge elfo32_check_arch() with elfn32_check_arch(),
make that serve as compat_elf_check_arch(). Note that
SET_PERSONALITY2() is already the same for all ABI variants -
it looks at the elf header to choose the flags to set.
* add asm/elfcore-compat.h, using the bigger (n32) variant
of elf32_prstatus as compat_elf_prstatus there.
* make PRSTATUS_SIZE() and SET_PR_FPVALID() choose the
right layout, same as done for amd64. test_thread_flag(TIF_32BIT_REGS)
is used as the predicate.
Voila - we are rid of binfmt_elf{n,o}32.c; fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c is
used, same as for all other ELF-supporting 64bit architectures that
need 32bit compat.

The __SYSCALL macro's arguments are system call number,
system call entry name and number of arguments for the
system call.
Argument- nargs in __SYSCALL(nr, entry, nargs) is neither
calculated nor used anywhere. So it would be better to
keep the implementaion as __SYSCALL(nr, entry). This will
unifies the implementation with some other architetures
too.

System call table generation script must be run to gener-
ate unistd_(nr_)n64/n32/o32.h and syscall_table_32_o32/
64_n64/64_n32/64-o32.h files. This patch will have changes
which will invokes the script.
This patch will generate unistd_(nr_)n64/n32/o32.h and
syscall_table_32_o32/64_n64/64-n32/64-o32.h files by the
syscall table generation script invoked by parisc/Make-
file and the generated files against the removed files
must be identical.
The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/-
asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file
will be included by kernel/scall32-o32/64-n64/64-n32/-
64-o32.Sfile.

All other architectures are hold a value for __NR_syscalls will
be equal to the last system call number +1.
But in mips architecture, __NR_syscalls hold the value equal to
total number of system exits in the architecture. One of the
patch in this patch series will genarate uapi header files.
In order to make the implementation common across all architect-
ures, add +1 to __NR_syscalls, which will be equal to the last
system call number +1.

When we get nanoMIPS support we'll be introducing the p32
ABI, and there's a reasonable chance that the equivalent
p64 ABI may come along in the future. Using 'n64' now would
avoid confusion in that case where we may have 2 different
64-bit ABIs.

[paul.burton@mips.com:
- Remove UAPI macro renaming, github code search shows at least the
chromium project uses __NR_64_Linux & __NR_64_Linux_syscalls.]
