  asm-generic: use compat version for preadv2 and pwritev2 (2016-05-05 00:42:20 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
asm-generic syscall fix for 4.6-rc

My last pull request for asm-generic had just one patch that added two
new system calls to asm/unistd.h, but unfortunately it turned out
to be wrong, pointing arch/tile compat mode at the native handlers
rather than the compat ones.

This was spotted by Yury Norov, who is working on ILP32 mode
for arch/arm64, which would have the same problem when merged.
This fixes the table to use the correct compat syscalls, like
the other 64-bit architectures do.

I'll try to find the time to come up with a solution that
prevents this problem from happening again, by allowing all
future system calls to just get added in a single file
for use by all architectures.
