[PATCH] ARM: ptrace: fix register indexing in GETHBPREGS request

The GETHBPREGS ptrace request incorrectly maps its index argument onto
the thread's saved debug state when the index != 0. This has not yet
been seen from userspace because GDB (the only user of this request)
only reads from register 0.
This patch fixes the indexing.
