This patch consolidates the setsockopt implementation on
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsockopt.c. The changes are:
1. Remove it from auto-generation syscalls.list on all architectures.
2. Add __ASSUME_SETSOCKOPT_SYSCALL as default and undef if for
specific kernel versions on some architectures.
This also fix a potential issue where 32-bit time_t ABI should use the
linux setsockopt which overrides the underlying SO_* constants used for
socket timestamping for _TIME_BITS=64.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
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.
