At exit_intr, we GET_THREAD_INFO(%rcx) and then jump to retint_kernel if saved CS was from kernel. But code at retint_kernel doesn't need %rcx.
Move GET_THREAD_INFO(%rcx) down, after CS check and branch. While at it, remove "has a correct top of stack" comment. After recent changes which eliminated FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK, we always have correct pt_regs layout.
