Consolidate arm and mips posix_fadvise implementations
As noted by c1f0601389db64d9, previous posix_fadvise consolidation
broke on mips o32.  As stated in commit message, MIPS o32 only defines
__NR_fadvise64 and it is behaves like __NR_fadvise64_64.

This patches consolidates both ARM and mips o32 version by fixing
the ARM used option (__NR_fadvise64_64 withouth the alignment required
by abi) and added another option, __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64,
which is used on mips o32.

When this option is used, posix_fadvise will use __NR_fadvise64_64
behavior (by defining or not __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG).  For
mips, if __NR_fadvise64_64 is not defined, __NR_fadvise will be used.

I also updated the posix_fadvise comments to explain better the
different kernel abi used in the supported architectures.

I checked with a mips o32 and verified that posix_fadvise.o is
indeed using 7 argument syscall with the expected argument position.
I also checked on i686-linux-gnu and arm-gnu-eabihf.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/posix_fadvise.c: Remove file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/posix_fadvise.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/kernel-features.h
	(__ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64): Define.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/posix_fadvise.c [__NR_fadvise64]: Add
	!defined __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64 to use syscall issue.
	[!__NR_fadvise64 && __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Remove
	__ALIGNMENT_ARG usage.
	[!__NR_fadvise64 && !__ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Define
	__NR_fadvise64_64 if it is not defined.

-/* Both arm and powerpc implements fadvise64_64 with last 'advise' argument
-   just after 'fd' to avoid the requirement of implementing 7-arg syscalls.
-   ARM also defines __NR_fadvise64_64 as __NR_arm_fadvise64_64.
+/* Default implementation will use __NR_fadvise64 with expected argument
+   positions (for instance i386 and powerpc32 that uses __ALIGNMENT_ARG).
 
-   tile requires __ASSUME_ALIGNED_REGISTER_PAIRS but implements the 32-bit
-   fadvise64_64 without the padding 0 after fd.
+   Second option will be used by arm which define __NR_arm_fadvise64_64
+   (redefined to __NR_fadvise64_64 in kernel-features.h) that behaves as
+   __NR_fadvise64_64 (without the aligment argument required for the ABI).
+
+   Third option will be used by both tile 32-bits and mips o32.  Tile
+   will set __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_NO_ALIGN to issue a 6 argument syscall,
+   while mips will use a 7 argument one with __NR_fadvise64.
