But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.
v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,

function-graph/x86: Replace unbalanced ret with jmp
The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a hook
to trace the exit of the function call. This hook will finish by
returning to the real location the function should return to.
But the current implementation uses a ret to jump to the real
return location. This causes a imbalance between calls and ret.
That is the original function does a call, the ret goes to the
handler and then the handler does a ret without a matching call.
Although the function graph tracer itself still breaks the branch
predictor by replacing the original ret, by using a second ret and
causing an imbalance, it breaks the predictor even more.
This patch replaces the ret with a jmp to keep the calls and ret
balanced. I tested this on one box and it showed a 1.7% increase in
performance. Another box only showed a small 0.3% increase. But no
box that I tested this on showed a decrease in performance by
making this change.
