ARM: fix oops when using older ARMv4T CPUs
Alexander Shiyan reports that CLPS711x fails at boot time in the data
exception handler due to a NULL pointer dereference. This is caused by
the late-v4t abort handler overwriting R9 (which becomes zero). Fix
this by making the abort handler save and restore R9.
