linux-user: Dereference Pointer Argument to ipc/semctl Sys Call

Browse Source 
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.
