x86/entry/64: Fix context tracking state warning when load_gs_index fails

This warning:

 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 3331 at arch/x86/entry/common.c:45 enter_from_user_mode+0x32/0x50
 CPU: 0 PID: 3331 Comm: ldt_gdt_64 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc7+ #13

  do_int80_syscall_32+0x7c/0x220
  entry_INT80_compat+0x38/0x50

... can be reproduced by running the GS testcase of the ldt_gdt test unit in
the x86 selftests.

do_int80_syscall_32() will call enter_form_user_mode() to convert context
tracking state from user state to kernel state. The load_gs_index() call
can fail with user gsbase, gsbase will be fixed up and proceed if this
happen.

However, enter_from_user_mode() will be called again in the fixed up path
though it is context tracking kernel state currently.

This patch fixes it by just fixing up gsbase and telling lockdep that IRQs
are off once load_gs_index() failed with user gsbase.
