x86/xen: Avoid fast syscall path for Xen PV guests

Browse Source 
After 32-bit syscall rewrite, and specifically after commit:

  5f310f739b ("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)
