This is kind of like the 32-bit and compat code, except that I
preserved the fast path this time.  I was unable to measure any
significant performance change on my laptop in the fast path.

Changes from v1:
 - Various tidying up.
 - Remove duplicate tables (folded in, so the fastpath table isn't in this set).
 - Rebased to 4.5-rc1
 - Remove enter_from_user_mode stuff -- let's get the basics in first.

Andy Lutomirski (10):
  selftests/x86: Extend Makefile to allow 64-bit-only tests
  selftests/x86: Add check_initial_reg_state
  x86/syscalls: Refactor syscalltbl.sh
  x86/syscalls: Remove __SYSCALL_COMMON and __SYSCALL_X32
  x86/syscalls: Move compat syscall entry handling into syscalltbl.sh
  x86/syscalls: Add syscall entry qualifiers
  x86/entry/64: Always run ptregs-using syscalls on the slow path
  x86/entry/64: Call all native slow-path syscalls with full pt-regs
  x86/entry/64: Stop using int_ret_from_sys_call in ret_from_fork
  x86/entry/64: Migrate the 64-bit syscall slow path to C
