x86: ia32 ptrace vs -ENOSYS

When we're stopped at syscall entry tracing, ptrace can change the %eax
value from -ENOSYS to something else.  If no system call is actually made
because the syscall number (now in orig_eax) is bad, then the %eax value
set by ptrace should be returned to the user.  But, instead it gets reset
to -ENOSYS again.  This is a regression from the native 32-bit kernel.

This change fixes it by leaving the return value alone after entry tracing.
