Why not just write it as const __X32_SYSCALL_BIT: u32 = 0x40000000; ?

Why not just write it as
const __X32_SYSCALL_BIT: u32 = 0x40000000;?
Done!
The source code didn't mention the x32 ABI by name. Give `__X32_SYSCALL_BIT` its rightful name so readers can understand what we're doing. Explain why we're not using `cfg(target_abi)`. For other ILP32 ABIs, it seems like they use the same syscall numbers.
