x86/ptrace: Provide pt_regs helper for entry/exit

As a preparatory step for moving the syscall and interrupt entry/exit
handling into generic code, provide a pt_regs helper which retrieves the
interrupt state from pt_regs. This is required to check whether interrupts
are reenabled by return from interrupt/exception.
