Adding new syscalls using LKM interface

[Fabrice Tchakountio <ftchakou@ftchakountio.bbn.com>]

All -

Can someone tell me how to add a "fresh" syscall to a running kernel
without replacing an existing syscall based on the LKM interface?

Unlike some BSD kernels (FreeBSD in particular), it appears to me
that we can't dynamically add/remove new syscalls without touching
some existing syscalls.

Thanks
Fabrice
