entry: Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() invokes local_irq_disable_exit_to_user() and syscall_exit_to_user_mode_prepare() after handling pending syscall exit work. The conversion of ARM64 to the generic entry code requires this to be split up, so move the invocations of local_irq_disable_exit_to_user() and syscall_exit_to_user_mode_prepare() into the only caller. No functional change intended.
