Add INLINE_SYSCALL_ERROR_RETURN_VALUE
For ia32 PIC, the first thing of many syscalls does is to call
__x86.get_pc_thunk.reg to load PC into reg in case there is an error,
which is required for setting errno.  In most cases, there are no
errors.  But we still call __x86.get_pc_thunk.reg.  This patch adds
INLINE_SYSCALL_ERROR_RETURN_VALUE so that i386 can optimize setting
errno by branching to the internal __syscall_error without PLT.

With i386 INLINE_SYSCALL_ERROR_RETURN_VALUE and i386 syscall inlining
optimization for GCC 5, for sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fchmodat.c with
-O2 -march=i686 -mtune=generic, GCC 5.2 now generates:
