x86-64: Fix register leak in 32-bit syscall audting

Restoring %ebp after the call to audit_syscall_exit() is not
only unnecessary (because the register didn't get clobbered),
but in the sysenter case wasn't even doing the right thing: It
loaded %ebp from a location below the top of stack (RBP <
ARGOFFSET), i.e. arbitrary kernel data got passed back to user
mode in the register.
