As a side effect this library offers other utilities.

syscall in initialization and cache its result.
kernel version
Parse kernel version from uname
in initialization (panics if it's invalid)
and offers a macro kversion!
to deal with it.
auxiliary vector
Detect auxiliary vector (if present) in initialization and offer a Rust
interface to query its values. Useful for hardware/kernel features
like scv
in ppc64.
vDSO
Detect vDSO and parse it (if present) in initialization and store its result.
Useful for vsyscalls on any platform and __kernel_vsyscall
for faster
syscalls on x86 machines.
