This patch consolidates all the pread/pread64 implementation for Linux in only one (sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pread.c). It also removes the syscall from the auto-generation using assembly macros. For pread{64} offset argument placement the new SYSCALL_LL{64} macro is used. For pread ports that do not define __NR_pread will use __NR_pread64 and for pread64 ports that dot define __NR_pread64 will use __NR_pread for the syscall. Checked on x86_64, x32, i386, aarch64, and ppc64le. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/pread.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/pread64.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/wordsize-32/pread.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/wordsize-32/pread64.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/pread.c: Likewise, * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/pread64.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/pread64.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/syscalls.list (pread): Remove syscall generation. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/sysdep.h [__NR_pread64] (__NR_pread): Remove define. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/sysdep.h: [__NR_pread64] (__NR_pread): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pread.c [__NR_pread64] (__NR_pread): Remove define.

This hierarchy supports Linux systems using the new asm-generic/unistd.h, which removes many familiar old syscalls. For example, to implement open(), newer Linux architectures require glibc to invoke the __NR_openat syscall with AT_FDCWD. This hierarchy provides all those implementations. It also provides support for 32-bit platforms using the 64-bit kernel syscall APIs, as the 32-bit ones are no longer provided. Note that newer ILP32 environments (x32 or AArch64:ILP32, for example) are converting to use more 64-bit types in kernel syscalls, so that aspect of this support is in more flux as of this writing.
