panji reported that he wasn't able to build iproute2's bpf library
due to lack of __NR_bpf in his system headers. Providing a fallback
definition when __NR_bpf is not available in the system lets the
loader compile just fine, so lets add them for majority of archs.

Sorry this looks like a mess. enumerating architectures in two different
projects is likely to break in future.
It says ifndef __NR_bpf, so only used then. And the numbers are uabi,
what will break here exactly? libbpf in kernel tree is having a similar
approach by the way.
