Subject: [PATCH v7 07/11] arm64/ptrace: Use syscall_get_arguments() heleper

The generic entry check audit context first and use
syscall_get_arguments() helper.

In order to switch to the generic entry for arm64,

- Also use the helper.

- Extract the syscall_enter_audit() helper to make it clear.

- Check audit context for syscall_enter_audit(), which only adds
  one additional check without any other differences as
  audit_syscall_entry() check it first otherwise do nothing.

No functional changes.
