parisc: Fix some apparent put_user() failures

After commit 6ab92e8b1e12 ("parisc: Switch user access functions
to signal errors in r29 instead of r8") bash suddenly started
to report those warnings after login:

-bash: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Bad file descriptor
-bash: no job control in this shell

It turned out, that a function call inside a put_user(), e.g.:
put_user(vt_do_kdgkbmode(console), (int __user *)arg);
clobbered the error register (r29) and thus the put_user() call itself
seem to have failed.

Rearrange the C-code to pre-calculate the intermediate value
and then do the put_user().
Additionally prefer the "+" constraint on pu_err and gu_err registers
to tell the compiler that those operands are both read and written by
the assembly instruction.
