[PATCH] [POWERPC] Check that the syscall table matches the syscall numbers

Also check that __NR_syscalls has been updated appropriately.

Hopefully this will catch any out of order additions to the
table in the future.

This version does not modify the current code for generating the syscall
tables and does more checking.
