Subject: [PATCH 04/11] x86/entry: move PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS out of error_entry

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...ux.alibaba.com>

Moving PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS out of error_entry doesn't change any
functionality.  It will enlarge the size:

size arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o.before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  17916	    384	      0	  18300	   477c	arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o

size --format=SysV arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o.before:
.entry.text                      5528      0
.orc_unwind                      6456      0
.orc_unwind_ip                   4304      0

size arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o.after:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  26868	    384	      0	  27252	   6a74	arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o

size --format=SysV arch/x86/entry/entry_64.o.after:
.entry.text                      8200      0
.orc_unwind                     10224      0
.orc_unwind_ip                   6816      0

But .entry.text in x86_64 is 2M aligned, enlarging it to 8.2k doesn't
enlarge the final text size.

The tables .orc_unwind[_ip] are enlarged due to it adds many pushes.

It is prepared for not calling error_entry() from XENPV in later patch
and for future converting the whole error_entry into C code.
