Still confused. Let's take a look at "microblaze".

arch/microblaze/include/asm/unistd.h
  -> #include <uapi/asm/unistd.h>

arch/microblaze/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h
  -> #include <asm/unistd_32.h>
   -> Generated during "make headers"

usr/include/asm/unistd_32.h is generated via
arch/microblaze/kernel/syscalls/Makefile with the syshdr command.

So we never end up including asm-generic/unistd.h directly on 
microblaze, but rather converts it (IIUC) to something else.

That will work as expected here?
