arm64: entry: Move ct_user_exit before any other exception



When taking an SError or Debug exception from EL0, we run the C
handler for these exceptions before updating the context tracking
code and unmasking lower priority interrupts.

When booting with nohz_full lockdep tells us we got this wrong:
| =============================
| WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
| 5.3.0-rc2-00010-gb4b5e9dcb11b-dirty #11271 Not tainted

| other info that might help us debug this:

| rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
| RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!

Moving the ct_user_exit calls to be before do_debug_exception() means
they are also before trace_hardirqs_off() has been updated. Add a new
ct_user_exit_irqoff macro to avoid the context-tracking code using
irqsave/restore before we've updated trace_hardirqs_off(). To be
consistent, do this everywhere.

The C helper is called enter_from_user_mode() to match x86 in the hope
we can merge them into kernel/context_tracking.c later.
