x86/asm/entry/64: Do not TRACE_IRQS fast SYSRET64 path
SYSRET code path has a small irq-off block.
On this code path, TRACE_IRQS_ON can't be called right before
interrupts are enabled for real, we can't clobber registers
there. So current code does it earlier, in a safe place.
But with this, TRACE_IRQS_OFF/ON frames just two fast
instructions, which is ridiculous: now most of irq-off block is
_outside_ of the framing.
Do the same thing that we do on SYSCALL entry: do not track this
irq-off block, it is very small to ever cause noticeable irq
latency.
Be careful: make sure that "jnz int_ret_from_sys_call_irqs_off"
now does invoke TRACE_IRQS_OFF - move
int_ret_from_sys_call_irqs_off label before TRACE_IRQS_OFF.
