kbuild, x86: Track generated headers with generated-y

Browse Source 
Track generated header files which aren't already in genhdr-y, alongside
generic-y wrappers in the */include/generated/[uapi/]asm/ directories.
Currently only x86 generates extra headers in these directories, for the
purposes of enumerating system calls for different ABIs, and xen
hypercalls.

This will allow the asm-generic wrapper handling code to remove stale
wrappers when files are removed from generic-y, without also removing
these headers which are generated separately.

--- 7.5 generated-y
If an architecture generates other header files alongside generic-y
wrappers, and not included in genhdr-y, then generated-y specifies
them.
This prevents them being treated as stale asm-generic wrappers and
removed.
Example:
#arch/x86/include/asm/Kbuild
generated-y += syscalls_32.h
