That brings up another question though - when was kcmp added to x86, and
why aren't we getting notifications from checksyscalls.sh that ARM hasn't
been updated?

It seems to be that the script was broken, and no one has noticed.
It seems Heiko did notice: http://www.serverphorums.com/read.php?12,559093

Now, I'm a bit puzzled by what follows: Heiko proposes a patch to
ignore sys_kcmp,
as it's x86-specific, which is acked by Cyrill. Then it suddenly
hpa@ pointed that better approach is to implement kcmp on other archs
after i've acked the patch. so then Heiko provided a patch for s390.
