Description

It seems that `sys_gettimeofday()` was replaced with ` __x64_sys_gettimeofday()`, it should be updated in the book too.

The content should be updated in `SysCall/linux-syscall-3.md`

Research direction

The file to update is `SysCall/linux-syscall-3.md`. Look for mentions of `sys_gettimeofday` and replace them with `__x64_sys_gettimeofday`. Verify the change by checking the surrounding context for consistency with other syscall references. No code changes are needed, only documentation.
