Lovely cleanup factor.

Just to make sure, are you sure the 32-bit details are identical 
across architectures?

For example some architectures did this:

> -#define __NR_seccomp_sigreturn_32	__NR_sigreturn

others did this:

While in yet another case you kept the syscall mappings:

It might all be correct, but it's not obvious to me.

Thanks,
