x86/entry: Call enter_from_user_mode() with IRQs off
Now that slow-path syscalls always enter C before enabling
interrupts, it's straightforward to call enter_from_user_mode() before
enabling interrupts rather than doing it as part of entry tracing.
With this change, we should finally be able to retire exception_enter().
This will also enable optimizations based on knowing that we never
change context tracking state with interrupts on.
