arm64: entry: unmask IRQ+FIQ after EL0 handling
For non-fatal exceptions taken from EL0, we expect that at some point during exception handling it is possible to return to a regular process context with all exceptions unmasked (e.g. as we do in do_notify_resume()), and we generally aim to unmask exceptions wherever possible. While handling SError and debug exceptions from EL0, we need to leave some exceptions masked during handling. Handling SError requires us to mask SError (which also requires masking IRQ+FIQ), and handing debug exceptions requires us to mask debug (which also requires masking SError+IRQ+FIQ). Once do_serror() or do_debug_exception() has returned, we no longer need to mask exceptions, and can unmask them all, which is what we did prior to commit: 9034f6251572a474 ("arm64: Do not enable IRQs for ct_user_exit") ... where we had to mask IRQs as for context_tracking_user_exit() expected IRQs to be masked. Since then, we realised that our context tracking wasn't entirely correct, and reworked the entry code to fix this. As of commit: 23529049c6842382 ("arm64: entry: fix non-NMI user<->kernel transitions") ... we replaced the call to context_tracking_user_exit() with a call to user_exit_irqoff() as part of enter_from_user_mode(), which occurs earlier, before we run the body of the handler and unmask exceptions in DAIF. When we return to userspace, we go via ret_to_user(), which masks exceptions in DAIF prior to calling user_enter_irqoff() as part of exit_to_user_mode(). Thus, there's no longer a reason to leave IRQs or FIQs masked at the end of the EL0 debug or error handlers, as neither the user exit context tracking nor the user entry context tracking requires this. Let's bring these into line with other EL0 exception handlers and ensure that IRQ and FIQ are unmasked in DAIF at some point during the handler.
