I can see why you are defining this. For compat, we don't expose
__SYSCALL_COMPAT to user. But this to work with ILP32 UAPI headers we
would have to define __SYSCALL_NONCOMPAT in the arm64 uapi unistd.h if
!__LP64__. I think we should use some naming closer to what we expose
via UAPI already (on other architectures) like
__ARCH_WANT_64BIT_SYSCALLS (or maybe we could reuse
__ARCH_WANT_SYSCALL_OFF_T).
