arm64: entry: cleanup sp_el0 manipulation
The kernel stashes the current task struct in sp_el0 so that this can be
acquired consistently/cheaply when required. When we take an exception
from EL0 we have to:
1) stash the original sp_el0 value
2) find the current task
3) update sp_el0 with the current task pointer
Currently steps #1 and #2 occur in one place, and step #3 a while later.
As the value of sp_el0 is immaterial between these points, let's move
them together to make the code clearer and minimize ifdeffery. This
necessitates moving the comment for MDSCR_EL1.SS.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
