The interrupt handler wrapper functions are not the ideal place to
maintain context tracking because after they return, the low level exit
code must then determine if there are interrupts to replay, or if the
task should be preempted, etc. Those paths (e.g., schedule_user) include
their own exception_enter/exit pairs to fix this up but it's a bit hacky
(see schedule_user() comments).
Ideally context tracking will go to user mode only when there are no
more interrupts or context switches or other exit processing work to
handle.
64e can not do this because it does not use the C interrupt exit code.

Previously context tracking was not done for asynchronous interrupts,
(those that run in interrupt context), and if those would cause a
reschedule when they exit, then scheduling functions (schedule_user,
preempt_schedule_irq) call exception_enter/exit to fix this up and
exit user context.
This is a hack we would like to get away from, so do context tracking
for asynchronous interrupts too.

This moves exception_enter/exit calls to wrapper functions for
synchronous interrupts. More interrupt handlers are covered by
this than previously.

Simple helper for synchronous interrupt handlers (i.e., process-context)
to enable interrupts if it was taken in an interrupts-enabled context.

Add wrapper functions (derived from x86 macros) for interrupt handler
functions. This allows interrupt entry code to be written in C.
