The llseek syscall takes two 32-bit arguments, offset_high
and offset_low, which must be combined to form a single
64-bit offset. Unfortunately we were combining them with
   (uint64_t)arg2 << 32) | arg3
and arg3 is a signed type; this meant that when promoting
arg3 to a 64-bit type it would be sign-extended. The effect
was that if the offset happened to have bit 31 set then
this bit would get sign-extended into all of bits 63..32.
Explicitly cast arg3 to abi_ulong to avoid the erroneous
sign extension.

Long-standing bug and we're quite close to 2.7 but the
fix is trivial so if somebody would like to review it
I think we could put it in...
