Before this patch, rcx and r11 were saved in pt_regs->rcx and pt_regs->r11. Which looks natural, but requires messy shuffling to/from iret stack whenever ptrace or e.g. iopl wants to modify return address or flags - because that's how these registers are used by SYSCALL/SYSRET.
This patch saves rcx and r11 in pt_regs->rip and pt_regs->flags, and uses these values for SYSRET64 insn. Shuffling is eliminated. stub_iopl is no longer needed: pt_regs->flags needs no fixing up. Testing shows that syscall fast path is ~54.3 ns before and after the patch (on 2.7 GHz Sandy Bridge CPU).
