uml: redo the calculation of NR_syscalls
Redo the calculation of NR_syscalls since that disappeared from i386 and use a similar mechanism on x86_64. We now figure out the size of the system call table in arch code and stick that in syscall_table_size. arch/um/kernel/skas/syscall.c defines NR_syscalls in terms of that since its the only thing that needs to know how many system calls there are. The old mechananism that was used on x86_64 is gone. arch/um/include/sysdep-i386/syscalls.h got some formatting since I was looking at it.
