MIPS: fix EVA & non-SMP non-FPU FP context signal handling
The save_fp_context & restore_fp_context pointers were being assigned to the wrong variables if either: - The kernel is configured for UP & runs on a system without an FPU, since b2ead5282885 "MIPS: Move & rename fpu_emulator_{save,restore}_context". - The kernel is configured for EVA, since ca750649e08c "MIPS: kernel: signal: Prevent save/restore FPU context in user memory". This would lead to FP context being clobbered incorrectly when setting up a sigcontext, then the garbage values being saved uselessly when returning from the signal. Fix by swapping the pointer assignments appropriately.
