[PATCH v2 1/1] x86/fred: Fix INT80 emulation for FRED

["Xin Li (Intel)" <xin@zytor.com>]

Add a FRED-specific INT80 handler fred_int80_emulation().

Commit
  55617fb991df ("x86/entry: Do not allow external 0x80 interrupts")
added a bunch of checks to the int $0x80 path, however they are
unnecessary and event wrong in fact under FRED.

1) FRED distinguishes external interrupts from software interrupts,
   thus int80_emulation() should NEVER be called for handling an
   external interrupt, and then int80_is_external() is meaningless
   when FRED is enabled.

2) The FRED kernel entry handler NEVER dispatches INTx, which is
   of event type EVENT_TYPE_SWINT, so the user mode checking in
   do_int80_emulation() is redundant.

3) int80_emulation() does a CLEAR_BRANCH_HISTORY, which is likly
   an overkill for new x86 CPU implementations that support FRED.

A dedicated FRED INT80 handler duplicates most of the code in
do_int80_emulation(), but it avoids sprinkling moar tests and
seems more readable.

Change since v1:
* Prefer a FRED-specific INT80 handler instead of sprinkling moar
  tests around (Borislav Petkov).
