    powerpc: Don't add __powerpc_ prefix to syscall entry points · 94746890
    Michael Ellerman authored
    When using syscall wrappers the __SYSCALL_DEFINEx() and related macros
    add a "__powerpc_" prefix to all syscall entry points.
    
    So for example sys_mmap becomes __powerpc_sys_mmap.
    
    This risks breaking workflows and tools that expect the old naming
    scheme. At a minimum setting a breakpoint on eg. sys_mmap with gdb no
    longer works.
    
    There seems to be no compelling reason to add the "__powerpc_" prefix,
    other than that it follows what some other arches do (x86, arm64, s390).
    
    But unlike other arches powerpc doesn't always enable syscall wrappers,
    so the syscall entry points can change name depending on CONFIG options.
    
    For those reasons drop the "__powerpc_" prefix, reverting to the
    existing naming.
    
    Doing so reveals two prototypes in signal.h that have the incorrect type
    when syscall wrappers are enabled. There are already prototypes for both
    functions in syscalls.h, so drop the ones from signal.h.
