MIPS: Fix buffer overflow in syscall_get_arguments()
Since commit 4c21b8fd8f14 ("MIPS: seccomp: Handle indirect system calls (o32)"), syscall_get_arguments() attempts to handle o32 indirect syscall arguments by incrementing both the start argument number and the number of arguments to fetch. However only the start argument number needs to be incremented. The number of arguments does not change, they're just shifted up by one, and in fact the output array is provided by the caller and is likely only n entries long, so reading more arguments overflows the output buffer. In the case of seccomp, this results in it fetching 7 arguments starting at the 2nd one, which overflows the unsigned long args[6] in populate_seccomp_data(). This clobbers the $s0 register from syscall_trace_enter() which __seccomp_phase1_filter() saved onto the stack, into which syscall_trace_enter() had placed its syscall number argument. This caused Chromium to crash. Credit goes to Milko for tracking it down as far as $s0 being clobbered.
