x86/entry: Remove skip_r11rcx

Browse Source 
commit 1b331eeea7b8676fc5dbdf80d0a07e41be226177 upstream.

Yes, r11 and rcx have been restored previously, but since they're being
popped anyway (into rsi) might as well pop them into their own regs --
setting them to the value they already are.

Less magical code.
