Subject: x86/entry/64: Merge the fast and slow SYSRET paths
Git-commit: a512210643da8082cb44181dba8b18e752bd68f0
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
References: bsc#1068032 CVE-2017-5754

They did almost the same thing.  Remove a bunch of pointless
instructions (mostly hidden in macros) and reduce cognitive load by
merging them.
