These functions are going to be needed on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK
architectures to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

This partially reverts commit 7962c2eddbfe ("arch: remove unused
function syscall_set_arguments()") by reusing some of old
syscall_set_arguments() implementations.

Could that be changed to something like:

for (int n = 1; n < 6; n++)
        regs->gprs[2 + n] = args[n];
regs->orig_gpr2 = args[0];

I think this is way easier to parse.
I don't mind changing syscall_set_arguments() this way, but it just
mirrors syscall_get_arguments(), so I think it would be better if these
two functions were written in the same style.  Would you like to change
syscall_get_arguments() as well?
