Subject: [PATCH 1/3] context_tracking: remove duplicate enabled check

All calls to context_tracking_enter and context_tracking_exit
are already checking context_tracking_is_enabled, except the
context_tracking_user_enter and context_tracking_user_exit
functions left in for the benefit of assembly calls.

Pull the check up to those functions, by making them simple
wrappers around the user_enter and user_exit inline functions.
