See include include/asm-mips/unistd.h and arch/mips/kernel/scall_o32.S.

In general adding new syscalls is considered a bad idea you may want to
look into using ioctl, sysctl(2) or procfs.

One thing to check is if unistd.h matches whats in the syscall table.  In
2.4.17 I was working with, there were more entries in the defines than in
the table so when I added my calls they went to never never land...
