Subject: [PATCH v2 05/20] x86/asm/64: Shrink paranoid_exit_restore and make labels local

paranoid_exit_restore was a copy of
restore_regs_and_return_to_kernel.  Merge them and make the
paranoid_exit internal labels local.

Keeping .Lparanoid_exit makes the code a bit shorter because it
allows a 2-byte jnz instead of a 5-byte jnz.

Saves 96 bytes of text.

(This is still a bit suboptimal in a non-CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS
 kernel, but fixing that would make the code rather messy.)
