Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86: get rid of FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK/RESTORE_TOP_OF_STACK

FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK is only necessary because we don't save %r11
to pt_regs->r11 on SYSCALL64 fast path, but we want ptrace to see
it populated.

Bite the bullet, add a single additional PUSH insn, and remove
FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK.

RESTORE_TOP_OF_STACK is already a nop. Remove it too.

On SandyBridge CPU, it does not get slower:
measured 54.22 ns per getpid syscall before and after last two changes
on defconfig kernel.
