arch/tile: make ptrace() work properly for TILE-Gx COMPAT mode
Previously, we tried to pass 64-bit arguments through the
"COMPAT" mode 32-bit syscall API, which turned out not to work
well. Now we just use straight 32-bit arguments in COMPAT mode,
thus requiring individual registers to be read/written with
two syscalls. Of course this is uncommon, since usually all
the registers are read or written at once.
The restructuring applies to all the tile platforms, but is
plausibly better than the original code in any case.
