MIPS: Correct forced syscall errors

When the system call return value is forced to be an error (for example
due to SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO), syscall_set_return_value() puts the error
code in the return register $v0 and -1 in the error register $a3.

However normally executed system calls put 1 in the error register
rather than -1, so fix syscall_set_return_value() to be consistent with
that.

I don't anticipate that anything would have been broken by this, since
the most natural way to check the error register on MIPS would be a
conditional branch if error register is [not] equal to zero (bnez or
beqz).

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