x86/entry/64: Bypass enter_from_user_mode on non-context-tracking boots

On CONFIG_CONTEXT_TRACKING kernels that have context tracking
disabled at runtime (which includes most distro kernels), we
still have the overhead of a call to enter_from_user_mode in
interrupt and exception entries.

If jump labels are available, this uses the jump label
infrastructure to skip the call.
