In Debian, the name syscall conflicts with this patch: in debian kernel source tree: debian/patches/features/x86/x86-make-x32-syscall-support-conditional.patch mailing list url: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1415245982.3398.53.camel@decadent.org.uk/T/#u which introduces a parameter named syscall.x32. So change our name.
sys_call_table is already declared in arch/x86/include/asm/syscall.h but of cource not exported by the kernel. before this commit, gcc complains as follows: /usr/src/linux-headers-6.1.0-16-common/arch/x86/include/asm/syscall.h:21:29: note: previous declaration of 'sys_call_table' with type 'long int (* const[])(const struct pt_regs *)' 21 | extern const sys_call_ptr_t sys_call_table[];

Rename sys_call_table to _sys_call_table to fix compile error
sys_call_table is already declared in arch/x86/include/asm/syscall.h but of cource not exported by the kernel.
And rename syscall module name to syscall_steal because In Debian, the name syscall conflicts with the patch debian/patches/features/x86/x86-make-x32-syscall-support-conditional.patch
