entry: Respect changes to system call number by trace_sys_enter()
When a probe is registered at the trace_sys_enter() tracepoint, and that
probe changes the system call number, the old system call still gets
executed. This worked correctly until commit b6ec41346103 ("core/entry:
Report syscall correctly for trace and audit"), which removed the
re-evaluation of the syscall number after the trace point.
Restore the original semantics by re-evaluating the system call number
after trace_sys_enter().
The performance impact of this re-evaluation is minimal because it only
takes place when a trace point is active, and compared to the actual trace
point overhead the read from a cache hot variable is negligible.
Fixes: b6ec41346103 ("core/entry: Report syscall correctly for trace and audit")
