[PATCH 2/4] ASAN for MIPS: Correct struct_kernel_stat_sz for MIPS and don't use <sys/stat.h>.

As mentioned in <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2018-03/msg00133.html>
the bogus adjustment to 160 from 144 (which is reverted here),
is a single-token commit in upstream r301307, an attempt to
correct a failed build due to an upstream change to compile the
runtime with D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64.  The correct fix is here:
just use the right include.  Yes, user-struct-stat64-as-stat is
actually 160 for MIPS o32 and I hear user-struct-stat is also
160 for n32.  There are additional fields appended for
user-struct-stat!  I guess for MIPS it's as bad as it gets for
mixing up kernel and user struct stat.  The context of the patch
doesn't show that in the #else there's the correct include, the
one for <asm/stat.h> to get the kernel-struct-stat.  If you
can't compile it, IMHO the kernel headers are just too old; 3.2
is fine for example.

This will be upstreamed, as soon as I find out the process.
It currently applies with some offsets to upstream, FWIW.

libsanitizer:
	* sanitizer_common/sanitizer_platform_limits_linux.cc: Do not
	take the shortcut to #include <sys/stat.h> for MIPS instead of
	the kernel <asm/stat.h>.  Explain why sys/stat.h is misleading
	or wrong to get the kernel struct stat.
	* sanitizer_common/sanitizer_platform_limits_posix.h [__mips__]:
	Correct the value for 32-bit non-android struct_kernel_stat_sz.
