x86/entry/64: Always run ptregs-using syscalls on the slow path
64-bit syscalls currently have an optimization in which they are
called with partial pt_regs. A small handful require full
pt_regs.
In the 32-bit and compat cases, I cleaned this up by forcing
full pt_regs for all syscalls. The performance hit doesn't
really matter as the affected system calls are fundamentally
heavy and this is the 32-bit compat case.
I want to clean up the 64-bit case as well, but I don't want to
hurt fast path performance. To do that, I want to force the
syscalls that use pt_regs onto the slow path. This will enable
us to make slow path syscalls be real ABI-compliant C functions.
Use the new syscall entry qualification machinery for this.
'stub_clone' is now 'stub_clone/ptregs'.
The next patch will eliminate the stubs, and we'll just have
'sys_clone/ptregs'.
As of this patch, two-phase entry tracing is no longer used. It
has served its purpose (namely a huge speedup on some workloads
prior to more general opportunistic SYSRET support), and once
the dust settles I'll send patches to back it out.
The implementation is heavily based on a patch from Brian Gerst:
