Aleksandar Markovic 2f2bd444be linux-user: Fix fadvise64() syscall support for Mips32
By looking at the file arch/mips/kernel/scall32-o32.S in Linux
kernel, it can be deduced that, for Mips32 platform, syscall
corresponding to number _NR_fadvise64 as defined in kernel file
arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h translates to kernel function
sys_fadvise64_64, and that argument layout for this system call is
as follows:

              0             32 0             32
             +----------------+----------------+
      (arg1) |       fd       |     __pad      | (arg2)
             +----------------+----------------+
      (arg3) |             buffer              | (arg4)
             +----------------+----------------+
      (arg5) |               len               | (arg6)
             +----------------+----------------+
      (arg7) |     advise     |    not used    | (arg8)
             +----------------+----------------+

The same argument layout can be deduced from glibc code, and
relevant commit messages in linux kernel and glibc.

The fix is to change TARGET_NR_fadvise64 to TARGET_NR_fadvise64_64
in Mips32 syscall numbers table. Array mips_syscall_args[] in
linux-user/main.c also already have "fadvise64_64" (and not
"fadvise64") in corresponding place for the syscall number in
question, so no change for linux-user/main.c.

This patch also fixes the failure LTP test posix_fadvise03, if
executed on Qemu-emulated Mips32 platform (user mode).
