This patch implements a fast entry for syscalls.
Syscalls don't have to preserve non volatile registers except LR.
This patch then implement a fast entry for syscalls, where
volatile registers get clobbered.
As this entry is dedicated to syscall it always sets MSR_EE
and warns in case MSR_EE was previously off
It also assumes that the call is always from user, system calls are
unexpected from kernel.
The overall series improves null_syscall selftest by 12,5% on an 83xx
and by 17% on a 8xx.
