Subject: [XEN PATCH 07/10] x86/entry: Track the IST-ness of an entry for the
 exit paths

Use %r12 to hold an ist_exit boolean.  This register is zero elsewhere in the
entry/exit asm, so it only needs setting in the IST path.

As this is subtle and fragile, add check_ist_exit() to be used in debugging
builds to cross-check that the ist_exit boolean matches the entry vector.

Write check_ist_exit() it in C, because it's debug only and the logic more
complicated than I care to maintain in asm.

For now, we only need to use this signal in the exit-to-Xen path, but some
exit-to-guest paths happen in IST context too.  Check the correctness in all
exit paths to avoid the logic bit-rotting.

x86/entry: Partially revert IST-exit checks

The patch adding check_ist_exit() didn't account for the fact that
reset_stack_and_jump() is not an ABI-preserving boundary.  The IST-ness in
%r12 doesn't survive into the next context, and is a stale value C.

This shows up in Gitlab CI for the Clang build:

  https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/andyhhp/xen/-/jobs/5112783827

and in OSSTest for GCC 8:

  http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/183045/test-amd64-amd64-xl-qemuu-debianhvm-amd64/serial-pinot0.log

There's no straightforward way to reconstruct the IST-exit-ness on the
exit-to-guest path after a context switch.  For now, we only need IST-exit on
the return-to-Xen path.
