x86/xen/64: Fix the reported SS and CS in SYSCALL 

When I cleaned up the Xen SYSCALL entries, I inadvertently changed
the reported segment registers.  Before my patch, regs->ss was
__USER(32)_DS and regs->cs was __USER(32)_CS.  After the patch, they
are FLAT_USER_CS/DS(32).

This had a couple unfortunate effects.  It confused the
opportunistic fast return logic.  It also significantly increased
the risk of triggering a nasty glibc bug:

Update the Xen entry code to change it back.
