The syscall tracing patch introduces a compile bug in lttng-modules
when the latter calls syscall_get_nr(), similar to the following:
<path-to-linux>/arch/arm/include/asm/syscall.h:21:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'task_thread_info' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
The issue is that we are using task_thread_info() in the
syscall_get_nr() function in asm/syscall.h, but not explicitly
including sched.h from this file, so we can expect this bug might
surface any time that syscall_get_nr() is called.
Explicitly including sched.h solves the problem.

As specified by ftrace-design.txt, TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT was
added, as well as NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h. Additionally,
__sys_trace was modified to call trace_sys_enter and
trace_sys_exit when appropriate.
Tests #2 - #4 of "perf test" now complete successfully.

Supplying the asm-generic/syscall.h interface is a
pre-requisite for HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK
