I have committed/pushed this to master. As for a NEWS entry, we already
have an announcement for nios2*-linux. If you feel it would be more
appropriate, I can append a "(generic syscall ABI)" besides it, to be
more clear on the supported systems.
As for the issue of nios2 port maintainer, Yao already volunteered
earlier, or if someone more familiar with nios2 details is desired, I
can fill in the task.
Thanks,
