x86: fix error handling for 32-bit compat out-of-range system call numbers

Commit 3f5159a9221f ("x86/asm/entry/32: Update -ENOSYS handling to match
the 64-bit logic") broke the ENOSYS handling for the 32-bit compat case.
The proper error return value was never loaded into %rax, except if
things just happened to go through the audit paths, which ended up
reloading the return value.

This moves the loading or %rax into the normal system call path, just to
make sure the error case triggers it.  It's kind of sad, since it adds a
useless instruction to reload the register to the fast path, but it's
not like that single load from the stack is going to be noticeable.
