Then, kernel header (include/asm-mips/unistd.h) should be fixed too?

It includes some asm statements like this:

        __asm__ volatile ( \
        ".set\tnoreorder\n\t" \
        "li\t$2, %2\t\t\t# " #name "\n\t" \
        "syscall\n\t" \
        "move\t%0, $2\n\t" \
        ".set\treorder" \
        : "=&r" (__v0), "=r" (__a3) \
        : "i" (__NR_##name) \
        : "$2", "$8", "$9", "$10", "$11", "$12", "$13", "$14", "$15", "$24"); \
