Pull generic entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Split the code into syscall and exception/interrupt parts to ease the
   conversion of ARM[64] to the generic entry infrastructure

 - Extend syscall user dispatching to support a single intercepted range
   instead of the default single non-intercepted range. That allows
   monitoring/analysis of a specific executable range, e.g. a library,
   and also provides flexibility for sandboxing scenarios

 - Cleanup and extend the user dispatch selftest

 included in this region. In addition, for syscalls that implement the
 trampoline code on the vDSO, that trampoline is never intercepted.

 [selector] is a pointer to a char-sized region in the process memory
 region, that provides a quick way to enable disable syscall redirection
 thread-wide, without the need to invoke the kernel directly.  selector
