As per the spec:

  the PARAMETER REGISTER contains the address of a pointer to a
  four-field data block.

So we need to follow the pointer and place the results of SYS_HEAPINFO
there.

I was just trying avoid repeating too much verbiage. But OK I've
reverted to the original code with the new helper:

            for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(retvals); i++) {
                bool fail;

                if (is_64bit_semihosting(env)) {
                    fail = put_user_u64(retvals[i], arg0 + i * 8);
                } else {
                    fail = put_user_u32(retvals[i], arg0 + i * 4);
                }

                if (fail) {
                    /* Couldn't write back to argument block */
                    errno = EFAULT;
                    return set_swi_errno(cs, -1);
                }
            }
            return 0;
