But isn't the idea of the script to always regenerate the file? I see this
kind of warning valuable to guide either a developer or an user to find
into the generation tools instead of hack the file itself for possible
solutions.

Rest looks ok to me, I would maybe extend the commit message to add the
information from cover-letter on how to fully update the arch-syscall.h
table once a new kernel is released.

Thanks for working on this, this decouple is something I would like to
push on glibc.
