x86/asm/entry/64: Do not GET_THREAD_INFO() too early

Browse source

At exit_intr, we GET_THREAD_INFO(%rcx) and then jump to
retint_kernel if saved CS was from kernel. But the code at
retint_kernel doesn't need %rcx.

Move GET_THREAD_INFO(%rcx) down, after CS check and branch.

While at it, remove "has a correct top of stack" comment.
After recent changes which eliminated FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK,
we always have a correct pt_regs layout.
