arm64: entry: avoid writing lr explicitly for constructing return paths
Using an explicit adr instruction to set the link register to point at ret_fast_syscall/ret_to_user can defeat branch and return stack predictors. Instead, use the standard calling instructions (bl, blr) and have an unconditional branch as the following instruction. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>
