Commit cb8db5d45 (UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate arch/arm/include/asm) moved
these syscall comments out of their context into the UAPI headers. Fix this.

v2:
   Rebase on v3.15-rc5

Hi Arnd,

A previous version of this patch
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/298234) was ignored. I
guess Russell is just overloaded. Would you ack this seemingly trivial patch so
I can put it in Russell's patches tracker?
