x86/asm/entry/64: Simplify optimistic SYSRET
Avoid redundant load of %r11 (it is already loaded a few
instructions before).
Also simplify %rsp restoration, instead of two steps:
add $0x80, %rsp
mov 0x18(%rsp), %rsp
we can do a simplified single step to restore user-space RSP:
mov 0x98(%rsp), %rsp
and get the same result.
