ever since inline syscalls were added for (o32) mips in commit
328810d325, the asm has nonsensically
loaded the syscall number, rather than taking $2 as an input
constraint to let the compiler load it. commit
cfc09b1ecf improved on this somewhat by
allowing a constant syscall number to propagate into an immediate, but
missed that the whole operation made no sense.
now, only $4, $5, $6, $8, and $9 are potential input-only registers.
$2 is always input and output, and $7 is both when it's an argument,
otherwise output-only. previously, $7 was treated as an input (with a
"1" constraint matching its output position) even when it was not an
input, which was arguably undefined behavior (asm input from
indeterminate value). this is corrected.
