parententry: Add exit_to_user_mode() wrapper (diff)

entry: Add syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work()
This is the same as syscall_exit_to_user_mode() but without calling exit_to_user_mode(). This can be used if there is an architectural reason to avoid the combo function, e.g. restarting a syscall without returning to userspace. Before returning to user space the caller has to invoke exit_to_user_mode().
