x86/entry: Reduce the code footprint of the 'idtentry' macro
Play a little trick in the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro to insert the GP registers "above" the original return address.

This reduces the static footprint significantly: text data bss dec hex filename 24307 0 0 24307 5ef3 entry_64.o-orig 20987 0 0 20987 51fb entry_64.o Co-developed-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180214175924.23065-2-linux@dominikbrodowski.net [ Small tweaks to comments. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
