x86/asm/entry/64: Simplify 'old_rsp' usage

Remove all manipulations of PER_CPU(old_rsp) in C code:

 - it is not used on SYSRET return anymore, and system entries
   are atomic, so updating it from the fork and context switch
   paths is pointless.

 - Tweak a few related comments as well: we no longer have a
   "partial stack frame" on entry, ever.

Based on (split out of) patch from Denys Vlasenko.
