    x86/spec-ctrl: Rework SPEC_CTRL_ENTRY_FROM_INTR_IST
    
    We are shortly going to add a conditional IBPB in this path.
    
    Therefore, we cannot hold spec_ctrl_flags in %eax, and rely on only 
clobbering
    it after we're done with its contents.  %rbx is available for use, and the
    more normal register to hold preserved information in.
    
    With %rax freed up, use it instead of %rdx for the RSB tmp register, and for
    the adjustment to spec_ctrl_flags.
    
    This leaves no use of %rdx, except as 0 for the upper half of WRMSR.  In
    practice, %rdx is 0 from SAVE_ALL on all paths and isn't likely to change in
    the foreseeable future, so update the macro entry requirements to state this
    dependency.  This marginal optimisation can be revisited if circumstances
    change.
    
    No practical change.
    
    This is part of XSA-407.
