In 539f51136500 ("x86/asm/entry/64: Disentangle error_entry/exit
gsbase/ebx/usermode code"), I arranged the code slightly wrong --
IRET faults would skip the code path that was intended to execute on
all error entries from user mode. Fix it up.
This does not fix a bug, but we'll need it, and it slightly shrinks
the code.
