Subject: x86/entry/64: Fix entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() IRQ tracing

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

commit 548c3050ea8d16997ae27f9e080a8338a606fc93 upstream.

When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF
before it.  This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe()
were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only
user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong.

I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking.  (The
context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we
turn IRQs back on.)  I haven't tested that for real yet because I
can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV.

Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label.
