Wire up the new pkey syscalls for ARM. This illustrates the ease that
the generated/tabular approach gives us: adding new system calls
becomes much easier, and all the dependencies are automatically handled
for the update.

Of course, this is development, and there will be a patch for -rc2 to
wire these up in due course. I'm using this as an illustration for
this approach - compared with f2335a2a0a59 ("ARM: wire up preadv2 and
pwritev2 syscalls") adding two syscalls, with a diffstat of:
arch/arm/include/asm/unistd.h | 2 +-
arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h | 2 ++
arch/arm/kernel/calls.S | 4 +++-
3 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
vs this patch adding three plus reserving two, giving:
arch/arm/tools/syscall.tbl | 5 +++++
