Explicit system calls for the socket operations were added in Linux kernel
in commit 86250b9d12ca for powerpc. This patch make use of those instead of
calling socketcall to save number of cycles on networking syscalls.

mq_notify (in the 1996 edition of POSIX) brings in references to recv
and socket (not in POSIX until the 2001 edition). This patch fixes
this by using __recv and __socket, exporting them from libc at version
GLIBC_PRIVATE.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite and comparison of installed
stripped shared libraries; PLT / dynamic symbol table changes render
the comparison not particularly useful for libc).

Remove variable.
This patch removes the socket.S implementation for all ports and replace
it by a C implementation using socketcall. For ports that implement
the syscall directly, there is no change.
The patch idea is to simplify the socket function implementation that
uses the socketcall to be based on C implemetation instead of a pseudo
assembly implementation with arch specific parts. The patch then remove
the assembly implementatation for the ports which uses socketcall
(i386, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sparc, m68k, s390 and sh).
I have cross-build GLIBC for afore-mentioned ports and tested on both
i386 and ppc32 without regressions.
