What's the plan with adding new syscalls to all architectures?

+ <stdin>: warning: #warning syscall io_uring_enter not implemented
[-Wcpp]: => 1481:2
+ <stdin>: warning: #warning syscall io_uring_register not
implemented [-Wcpp]: => 1484:2
+ <stdin>: warning: #warning syscall io_uring_setup not implemented
[-Wcpp]: => 1478:2

and more seem to be planned for this merge window.

Shall each architcture maintainer take care of this hxxself, or will
this be done in
a coordinated way?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Geert
