arm64: entry: Use irqentry_{enter_from,exit_to}_kernel_mode()

The generic irqentry code now provides irqentry_enter_from_kernel_mode()
and irqentry_exit_to_kernel_mode(), which can be used when an exception
is known to be taken from kernel mode. These can be inlined into
architecture-specific entry code, and avoid redundant work to test
whether the exception was taken from user mode.

Use these in arm64_enter_from_kernel_mode() and
arm64_exit_to_kernel_mode(), which are only used for exceptions known to
be taken from kernel mode. This will remove a small amount of redundant
work, and will permit further changes to arm64_exit_to_kernel_mode() in
subsequent patches.

There should be no funcitonal change as a result of this patch.
