You're missing the information about what platforms this patch was tested
on with the full glibc testsuite. That's critical information for such a
patch submission, which needs testing on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.
(Later patches supporting using new syscalls will need testing on
additional configurations, including building with old kernel headers;
building with kernel headers with the new syscalls but running on a kernel
without them; and building with new kernel headers and running on a kernel
with the new syscalls.)
