x86_64, traps: Fix the espfix64 #DF fixup and rewrite it in C
There's nothing special enough about the espfix64 double fault fixup to justify writing it in assembly. Move it to C. This also fixes a bug: if the double fault came from an IST stack, the old asm code would return to a partially uninitialized stack frame.
