MIPS: Tracing: Fix argument passing of the 32bit support with gcc 4.5
As documented in the GCC 4.5 docs [1] -mmcount-ra-address uses register
$12 to pass the stack offset of the return address to the _mcount function.
On 64-bit kernels $12 is t0 but in 32-bit kernels it is t4 so we need to
use $12 instead of t0 here to be correct for both kernel types.
