Use register r29 instead of register r8 to signal faults when accessing
user memory. In case of faults, the fixup routine will store -EFAULT in
this register.
This change saves up to 752 bytes on a 32bit kernel, partly because the
compiler doesn't need to save and restore the old r8 value on the stack.
bloat-o-meter results for usage with r29 register:

bloat-o-meter results for usage with r28 register:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 28/83 up/down: 296/-956 (-660)
