x86/asm/entry/64: Disable opportunistic SYSRET if regs->flags has TF set

When I wrote the opportunistic SYSRET code, I missed an important difference
between SYSRET and IRET.

Both instructions are capable of setting EFLAGS.TF, but they behave differently
when doing so:

 - IRET will not issue a #DB trap after execution when it sets TF.
   This is critical -- otherwise you'd never be able to make forward progress when
   returning to userspace.

 - SYSRET, on the other hand, will trap with #DB immediately after
   returning to CPL3, and the next instruction will never execute.

This breaks anything that opportunistically SYSRETs to a user
context with TF set.  For example, running this code with TF set
and a SIGTRAP handler loaded never gets past 'post_nop':

	extern unsigned char post_nop[];
	asm volatile ("pushfq\n\t"
		      "popq %%r11\n\t"
		      "nop\n\t"
		      "post_nop:"
		      : : "c" (post_nop) : "r11");

In my defense, I can't find this documented in the AMD or Intel manual.

Fix it by using IRET to restore TF.
