[PATCH v3 2/4] ARM: vfp: Pass successful return address via register R3

[Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>]

In preparation for reimplementing the do_vfp()->vfp_support_entry()
handover in C code, switch to using R3 to pass the 'success' return
address, rather than R9, as it cannot be used for parameter passing.
