If a tracer sets the syscall number to an invalid one, allow the return
value set by the tracer to be returned the tracee.
The test for NR_syscalls is already at entry_64.S, and it's at
do_syscall_trace_enter only to skip audit and trace.
After this, two failures from seccomp_bpf selftests complete just fine,
as the failing test was using ptrace to change the syscall to return an
error or a fake value, but were failing as it was always returning
-ENOSYS.
