MIPS: Negate error syscall return in trace

The sys_exit trace event takes a single return value for the system
call, which MIPS passes the value of the $v0 (result) register, however
MIPS returns positive error codes in $v0 with $a3 specifying that $v0
contains an error code. As a result erroring system calls are traced
returning positive error numbers that can't always be distinguished from
success.

Use regs_return_value() to negate the error code if $a3 is set.

Fixes: 1d7bf993 ("MIPS: ftrace: Add support for syscall tracepoints.")
