[PATCH v2 12/16] Use shmat syscall for Linux implementation


Changes from previous version:

  - Use __ASSUME_SYSVIPC_SYSCALL instead of __NR_syscall to issue the
    wired syscall or the ipc one.

--

This patch add a direct call to shmat syscall if it is supported by
kernel features.

Checked on x86_64, i686, powerpc64le, aarch64, and armhf.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/shmat.c (shmat): Use shmat syscall if it is
	defined.
