x86_32, entry: Do syscall exit work on badsys (CVE-2014-4508)
commit 554086d85e71f30abe46fc014fea31929a7c6a8a upstream.
The bad syscall nr paths are their own incomprehensible route
through the entry control flow. Rearrange them to work just like
syscalls that return -ENOSYS.
This fixes an OOPS in the audit code when fast-path auditing is
enabled and sysenter gets a bad syscall nr (CVE-2014-4508).
This has probably been broken since Linux 2.6.27:
