The tst_syscall() is defined in lapi/syscalls.h and I doubt that this
header is incldued from tst_test.h and even if it is we should include
the lapi/syscall.h instead.

The difference between plain syscall() and tst_syscall() is twofold, it
takes care of undefined __NR_foo as well as of ENOSYS return from
kernel, so generally tst_syscall() should be used instead.
