    tools: Move x86 syscall number fallbacks to .../uapi/ · de5f4213
    Sean Christopherson authored
    Move unistd_{32,64}.h from x86/include/asm to x86/include/uapi/asm so
    that tools/selftests that install kernel headers, e.g. KVM selftests, can
    include non-uapi tools headers, e.g. to get 'struct list_head', without
    effectively overriding the installed non-tool uapi headers.
    
    Swapping KVM's search order, e.g. to search the kernel headers before
    tool headers, is not a viable option as doing results in linux/type.h and
    other core headers getting pulled from the kernel headers, which do not
    have the kernel-internal typedefs that are used through tools, including
    many files outside of selftests/kvm's control.
    
    Prior to commit cec07f53 ("perf tools: Move syscall number fallbacks
    from perf-sys.h to tools/arch/x86/include/asm/"), the handcoded numbers
    were actual fallbacks, i.e. overriding unistd_{32,64}.h from the kernel
    headers was unintentional.
