[PATCH v2] riscv: entry: set a0 prior to syscall_enter_from_user_mode

When we test seccomp with 6.4 kernel, we found errno has wrong value.
If we deny NETLINK_AUDIT with EAFNOSUPPORT, after f0bddf50586d, we will
get ENOSYS instead. We got same result with 9c2598d43510 ("riscv: entry: Save a0
prior syscall_enter_from_user_mode()").
After analysing code, we think that regs->a0 = -ENOSYS should be advanced before
syscall_enter_from_user_mode to fix this problem. In __seccomp_filter, when
seccomp rejected this syscall with specified errno, they will set a0 to return
number as syscall ABI, and then return -1. This return number is finally pass
as return number of syscall_enter_from_user_mode, and then is compared
with NR_syscalls after converted to ulong (so it will be ULONG_MAX).
The condition syscall < NR_syscalls will always be false, so regs->a0 = -ENOSYS
is always executable. It covered a0 set by seccomp, so we always get
ENOSYS when match seccomp RET_ERRNO rule.
Fixes: f0bddf50586d ("riscv: entry: Convert to generic entry")
