x86/asm/entry/64: Move opportunistic sysret code to syscall code path

This change does two things:

Copy-pastes "retint_swapgs:" code into syscall handling code,
the copy is under "syscall_return:" label. The code is unchanged
apart from some label renames.

Removes "opportunistic sysret" code from "retint_swapgs:" code
block, since now it won't be reached by syscall return. This in
fact removes most of the code in question.

12530 0 0 12530 30f2 entry_64.o.before

Run-tested.
