x86/traps: Weaken context tracking entry assertions
We were asserting that we were all the way in CONTEXT_KERNEL when exception handlers were called. While having this be true is, I think, a nice goal (or maybe a variant in which we assert that we're in CONTEXT_KERNEL or some new IRQ context), we're not quite there. In particular, if an IRQ interrupts the SYSCALL prologue and the IRQ handler in turn causes an exception, the exception entry will be called in RCU IRQ mode but with CONTEXT_USER. This is okay (nothing goes wrong), but until we fix up the SYSCALL prologue, we need to avoid warning.
