entry: Inline syscall_exit_to_user_mode()
Similar to commit 221a164035fd ("entry: Move syscall_enter_from_user_mode() to header file"), move syscall_exit_to_user_mode() to the header file as well. Testing was done with the byte-unixbench syscall benchmark (which calls getpid) and QEMU. On riscv I measured a 7.09246% improvement, on x86 a 2.98843% improvement, on loongarch a 6.07954% improvement, and on s390 a 11.1328% improvement. The Intel bot also reported "kernel test robot noticed a 1.9% improvement of stress-ng.seek.ops_per_sec".
