arm: don't use the register R12 in the routine syscall_common()

Browse Source 
The register R12 has a special meaning when syscalls are hooked
with ptrace() in ARM that results in a dumpee context corruption
on an injected blob unmap. Note that this patch doesn't solve
the problem entirely since the compiler may corrupt the register
before issuing a call to the routine sys_munmap(); however
we assume that a sufficiently decent compiler doesn't.

@ We use the register R8 unlike libc that uses R12.
@ This avoids corruption of the register by the stub
@ for the syscall sys_munmap() when syscalls are hooked
@ by ptrace(). However we have to make sure that
@ the compiler doesn't use the register on the route
@ between parasite_service() and sys_munmap().
