arm64: entry-common: don't touch daif before bp-hardening
The previous patches mechanically transformed the assembly version of entry.S to entry-common.c for synchronous exceptions. The C version of local_daif_restore() doesn't quite do the same thing as the assembly versions if pseudo-NMI is in use. In particular, | local_daif_restore(DAIF_PROCCTX_NOIRQ) will still allow pNMI to be delivered. This is not the behaviour do_el0_ia_bp_hardening() and do_sp_pc_abort() want as it should not be possible for the PMU handler to run as an NMI until the bp-hardening sequence has run. The bp-hardening calls were placed where they are because this was the first C code to run after the relevant exceptions. As we've now moved that point earlier, move the checks and calls earlier too. This makes it clearer that this stuff runs before any kind of exception, and saves modifying PSTATE twice.
