There is a branch from SYSENTER/SYSCALL code to INT 80 code: if we fail to retrieve arg6, we return EFAULT. Before this patch, in this case we don't clear pt_regs->r8..r11. This patch fixes this. The resulting code is smaller and simpler. While at it, remove incorrect comment about syscall dispatching CALL insn: it does not use RIP-relative addressing form (the comment was meant to be "TODO: make this rip-relative", and morphed since then, dropping "TODO").
