[PATCH] Make do_restart() and do_checkpoint() return long

[Dan Smith <danms@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Since syscalls return a long, do_checkpoint() and do_restart() need to also
return a long.  On a 64-bit platform that uses a general-purpose register
for the return value, this is needed to avoid corrupting the value of that
saved register if checkpointed while in userspace.
