x86/asm/entry/64: Save user RSP in pt_regs->sp on SYSCALL64 fastpath
Prepare for the removal of 'usersp', by simplifying PER_CPU(old_rsp) usage: - use it only as temp storage - store the userspace stack pointer immediately in pt_regs->sp on syscall entry, instead of using it later, on syscall exit. - change C code to use pt_regs->sp only, instead of PER_CPU(old_rsp) and task->thread.usersp. FIXUP/RESTORE_TOP_OF_STACK are simplified as well.
