Description
Hi, it seems like there's no support for `sparc` or `sparc64` architectures currently. What would be the steps to implement support for making syscalls on them? Would it be possible to incorporate the required assembly code from similar Rust libraries?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the repository's existing architecture-specific syscall implementations and compare them with similar Rust libraries, as suggested in the issue. Determine the required assembly and integration points for sparc and sparc64; done means both architectures can make raw Linux system calls and have suitable coverage.
