MIPS: Opt into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS
This the mips version of commit c1bd55f922a2d ("x86: opt into HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS, for both 32-bit and 64-bit"). Simply use the tls system call argument instead of extracting the tls argument by magic from the pt_regs structure. See commit 3033f14ab78c3 ("clone: support passing tls argument via C rather than pt_regs magic") for more background.
