I'm very reluctant to more syscall inflation. We already have lots of
syscalls that could have been easily done via devices or filesystems
(yes, some of them are just old Unix relics).
Syscalls don't play well w/ modules, containers, distributed systems,
etc, and need extra low-level code for most non-C languages (eg.
scripting languages).
