Subject: [PATCH 4.14 039/159] x86/entry/64: Shrink paranoid_exit_restore and make labels local

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

commit e53178328c9b96fbdbc719e78c93b5687ee007c3 upstream.

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. )
