in mips cancellable syscall asm, don't assume gp register is valid

the old __cp_cancel code path loaded the address of __cancel from the
GOT using the $gp register, which happened to be set to point to the
correct GOT by the calling C function, but there is no ABI requirement
that this happen. instead, go the roundabout way and compute the
address of __cancel via pc-relative and gp-relative addressing
starting with a fake return address generated by a bal instruction,
which is the same trick crt1 uses to bootstrap.
