Source file locations for syscall definitions can change over a period
of time. File paths in comments get stale and are hard to maintain long

locate a syscall definition using the SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro.

Remove all source file path comments from the syscall headers. Also,
equalize the uneven line spacing (some of which is introduced due to the
deletions).
