lib/syscall: fix syscall registers retrieval on 32-bit platforms
Lilith >_> and Claudio Bozzato of Cisco Talos security team reported that collect_syscall() improperly casts the syscall registers to 64-bit values leaking the uninitialized last 24 bytes on 32-bit platforms, that are visible in /proc/self/syscall. The cause is that info->data.args are u64 while syscall_get_arguments() uses longs, as hinted by the bogus pointer cast in the function. Let's just proceed like the other call places, by retrieving the registers into an array of longs before assigning them to the caller's array. This was successfully tested on x86_64, i386 and ppc32.
