A couple of architectures including arm64 already implement the
kexec_file_load system call, on many others we have assigned a system
call number for it, but not implemented it yet.

Adding the number in arch/arm/ lets us use the system call on arm64
systems in compat mode, and also reduces the number of differences
between architectures. If we want to implement kexec_file_load on ARM
in the future, the number assignment means that kexec tools can already
be built with the now current set of kernel headers.

Hmm, I wonder if we need a compat wrapper for this, or are we assuming
that the early entry code has already zero-extended the long and pointer
arguments?

Yes, that is generally the assumption for compat syscalls.

s390 needs some extra magic to do a 31-to-64 extension on pointer
arguments, and I think sometimes we need a special wrapper to
do sign-extension of 32-bit arguments into 64-bit, but the arguments
here should not need that.
