x86/entry: Partially revert IST-exit checks
The patch adding check_ist_exit() didn't account for the fact that
reset_stack_and_jump() is not an ABI-preserving boundary. The IST-ness in
%r12 doesn't survive into the next context, and is a stale value C.
This shows up in Gitlab CI for the Clang build:
https://gitlab.com/xen-project/people/andyhhp/xen/-/jobs/5112783827
and in OSSTest for GCC 8:
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/183045/test-amd64-amd64-xl-qemuu-debianhvm-amd64/serial-pinot0.log
There's no straightforward way to reconstruct the IST-exit-ness on the
exit-to-guest path after a context switch. For now, we only need IST-exit
on
the return-to-Xen path.
Fixes: 21bdc25b05a0 ("x86/entry: Track the IST-ness of an entry for the
exit paths")
