[PATCH v3 1/6] mips: fix mips_get_syscall_arg() for o32

This makes ptrace/get_syscall_info selftest pass on mips o32 and
mips64 o32 by fixing the following two test assertions:

1. get_syscall_info test assertion on mips o32:
  # get_syscall_info.c:218:get_syscall_info:Expected exp_args[5] (3134521044) == info.entry.args[4] (4911432)
  # get_syscall_info.c:219:get_syscall_info:wait #1: entry stop mismatch

2. get_syscall_info test assertion on mips64 o32:
  # get_syscall_info.c:209:get_syscall_info:Expected exp_args[2] (3134324433) == info.entry.args[1] (18446744072548908753)
  # get_syscall_info.c:210:get_syscall_info:wait #1: entry stop mismatch

The first assertion is fixed for mips o32 by using struct pt_regs.pad0
instead of get_user() to obtain syscall arguments.  This approach works
due to this piece in arch/mips/kernel/scall32-o32.S:

        /*
         * Ok, copy the args from the luser stack to the kernel stack.
         */

        .set    push
        .set    noreorder
        .set    nomacro

    load_a4: user_lw(t5, 16(t0))		# argument #5 from usp
    load_a5: user_lw(t6, 20(t0))		# argument #6 from usp
    load_a6: user_lw(t7, 24(t0))		# argument #7 from usp
    load_a7: user_lw(t8, 28(t0))		# argument #8 from usp
    loads_done:

        sw	t5, 16(sp)		# argument #5 to ksp
        sw	t6, 20(sp)		# argument #6 to ksp
        sw	t7, 24(sp)		# argument #7 to ksp
        sw	t8, 28(sp)		# argument #8 to ksp
        .set	pop

        .section __ex_table,"a"
        PTR_WD	load_a4, bad_stack_a4
        PTR_WD	load_a5, bad_stack_a5
        PTR_WD	load_a6, bad_stack_a6
        PTR_WD	load_a7, bad_stack_a7
        .previous

arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S has analogous code for mips64 o32 that
allows obtaining syscall arguments from struct pt_regs.regs[4..11]
instead of get_user().

The second assertion is fixed by truncating 64-bit values to 32-bit
syscall arguments.
