It's because adding syscalls is simple a giant pain, full of pitfalls that are completely non-obvious. When asked to add syscalls for architectures I can't personally test I'll have to rely on the test bot giving me some feedback - and it seems the wrong thing here will just silently pass without any notice. The change looks fine to me, but then again I just demonstrated a complete lack of clue on asm-generic syscalls..
