SAVE_ALL and RESTORE_ALL macros for !CONFIG_X86_64 were
introduced in commit:
1a338ac32 commit ('sched, x86: Optimize the preempt_schedule() call')
... and were used in the ___preempt_schedule() and ___preempt_schedule_context()
functions from the arch/x86/kernel/preempt.S.
But the arch/x86/kernel/preempt.S file was removed in the following commit:
0ad6e3c5 commit ('x86: Speed up ___preempt_schedule*() by using THUNK helpers')
The ___preempt_schedule()/___preempt_schedule_context() functions were
reimplemeted and do not use SAVE_ALL/RESTORE_ALL anymore.
These macros have no users anymore, so we can remove them.

[ Improved the changelog. ]

On CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING kernels that have context tracking
disabled at runtime (which includes most distro kernels), we
still have the overhead of a call to enter_from_user_mode in
interrupt and exception entries.
If jump labels are available, this uses the jump label
infrastructure to skip the call.

To prepare for the big rewrite of the error and interrupt exit
paths, we will need pt_regs completely filled in.
It's already completely filled in when error_exit runs, so rearrange
interrupt handling to match it. This will slow down interrupt
handling very slightly (eight instructions), but the
simplification it enables will be more than worth it.

asm/calling.h is private to the entry code, make this more apparent
by moving it to the new arch/x86/entry/ directory.
