This patch cleans up for __ASSUME_ATFCTS now always being true for the
supported Linux kernel versions by removing conditional code in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux. Several fchownat.c files that were only
present because of differences in the fallback syscalls used
(depending on the architecture-specific names of chown-related
syscalls for 32-bit uids) are removed. Files that looks like they
could be replaced by syscalls.list entries have the standard "Consider
moving to syscalls.list." comment (see bug 14138) added. Conditionals
on the relevant __NR_* syscall numbers being defined are also removed,
since my analysis indicated that the relevant syscalls are always
defined for all relevant kernel versions using any affected file.
Much of the removed fallback code had unbounded stack allocations, so
this reduces the number of cases to consider for anyone reviewing uses
of alloca and VLAs in glibc.
There remain tests of __ASSUME_ATFCTS in io/openat.c (to determine
whether to define __have_atfcts) and sysdeps/posix/getcwd.c (which
also uses __have_atfcts); thus, the definition of __ASSUME_ATFCTS
remains in kernel-features.h. The logical condition relevant there is
whether openat64_not_cancel_3 is known to work. Hurd doesn't use this
version of getcwd at all, so the conditionals in getcwd.c are always
true in glibc. However, this code is also used in gnulib. So the
best way to deal with the conditionals there may be for gnulib people
to deal with merging all relevant changes in both directions between
the glibc and gnulib versions of this file, at the end of which the
openat conditionals should be in whatever form is best for gnulib, and
hardcoded in the _LIBC case to having openat supported.
Tested by comparing before-and-after disassembly of installed
(stripped) shared libraries, on x86_64 and x86. On x86 the patch made
no change to the disassembly; on x86_64, the only changes were in
readlinkat, where formerly the return value from the readlinkat
syscall was stored in an int variable before being converted to
ssize_t for the return, and now the return value is returned directly
without truncation to int. I think it's clearly correct not to
truncate the return value (although I also think the truncation would
not have been a user-visible bug because the kernel would never have
returned a value it could have affected).

I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips.
* README: Update listing for mips-*-linux-gnu and
mips64-*-linux-gnu.
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/mips.
