arch,sim: Use the guest ABI mechanism with pseudo instructions.

Right now, there are only two places which call the pseudoInst function
directly, the ARM KVM CPU and the generic mmapped IPR. These two
callers currently use the generic "PseudoInstABI" which is just a
wrapper around the existing getArgument function.

In the future, this getArgument function will be disolved, and the
PseudoInstABI will be defined for each ABI. Since it currently mimics
the Linux ABI since gem5 can only handle one ABI at a time right now,
this implementation will probably be shared by linux system calls,
except that the pseudo inst implementation will eat return values since
those are returned through other means when the pseudo inst is based on
magic address ranges.
