linux-user: Dereference Pointer Argument to ipc/semctl Sys Call
When the ipc system call is used to wrap a semctl system call, the ptr argument to ipc needs to be dereferenced prior to passing it to the semctl handler. This is because the fourth argument to semctl is a union and not a pointer to a union. Signed-off-by: Tom Musta <tommusta@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Riku Voipio <riku.voipio@linaro.org>
