After 32-bit syscall rewrite, and specifically after commit 5f310f739b4c
("x86/entry/32: Re-implement SYSENTER using the new C path"), the stack
frame that is passed to xen_sysexit is no longer a "standard" one (i.e.
it's not pt_regs).
Since we end up calling xen_iret from xen_sysexit we don't need to fix
up the stack and instead follow entry_SYSENTER_32's IRET path directly
to xen_iret.
We can do the same thing for compat mode even though stack does not need
to be fixed. This will allow us to drop usergs_sysret32 paravirt op (in
the subsequent patch)
