Previously, error_entry() and paranoid_entry() saved the GP registers
onto stack space previously allocated by its callers. Combine these two
steps in the callers, and use the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro
for that.
Note: The testb $3, CS(%rsp) instruction in idtentry() does not need
modification. Previously %rsp was manually decreased by 15*8; with
this patch, %rsp is decreased by 15 pushq instructions. Moreover,
error_entry did and does the exact same test (with offset=8) after
the registers have been moved/pushed and cleared.
