Syscall numbering should be the same as we use UAPI for both ARCompact (AKA ARCv1)
and ARCv2. As for calling convention I think it indeed differs.

Note ARCompact and ARCv2 ISAs are binary incompatible!

Even though assembly look pretty much the same (sans instructions
available only for either ARCompact or ARCv2) encodings are different so
in that sense these are completely different architectures.

Also I'm wondering what could be other cases for use of syscall_get_arch().

So I'd say it's better to report different values for ARC ISAs.
And given we use the same values as in Binutils IMHO it would be good
to not mix IDs here.
