Could you also add the system call numbers to
include/uapi/asm-generic/unistd.h at the same time?

Even if the support is x86 specific for the forseeable future, it may
be good to reserve the number just in case.
The other architecture specific syscall lists are usually left to the
individual arch maintainers, most a lot of the newer architectures
share this table.
