sparc: Fix fork/clone/vfork system call restart.
We clobber %i1 as well as %i0 for these system calls, because they give two return values. Therefore, on error, we have to restore %i1 properly or else the restart explodes since it uses the wrong arguments. This fixes glibc's nptl/tst-eintr1.c testcase. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
