Re: Update kernel-features.h files for Linux 5.1

Thanks for pointing this out. Here's a revised patch version with the
__ASSUME_DIRECT_SYSVIPC_SYSCALLS changes removed.
Update kernel-features.h files for Linux 5.1.
Linux 5.1 adds missing syscalls to the syscall table for many Linux
kernel architectures. This patch updates the kernel-features.h
headers accordingly. __ASSUME_DIRECT_SYSVIPC_SYSCALLS is not updated
because of the differences between new and old syscalls described in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-05/msg00235.html>. I
believe the statfs64 structure used by alpha matches what the new
kernel syscalls use, but that should be reviewed carefully.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
