sparc32: fix a braino in fault handling in csum_and_copy_..._user()

Fault handler used to make non-trivial calls, so it needed
to set a stack frame up.  Used to be
	save ... - grab a stack frame, old %o... become %i...
	....
	ret	- go back to address originally in %o7, currently %i7
	 restore - switch to previous stack frame, in delay slot
Non-trivial calls had been gone since ab5e8b33

 and that code should
have become
	retl	- go back to address in %o7
	 clr %o0 - have return value set to 0
What it had become instead was
	ret	- go back to address in %i7 - return address of *caller*
	 clr %o0 - have return value set to 0
which is not good, to put it mildly - we forcibly return 0 from
csum_and_copy_{from,to}_iter() (which is what the call of that
thing had been inlined into) and do that without dropping the
stack frame of said csum_and_copy_..._iter().  Confuses the
hell out of the caller of csum_and_copy_..._iter(), obviously...
