  Currently arm64 doesn't use CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY and doesn't call
lockdep_sys_exit() when returning to userspace.
This means that lockdep won't check for held locks when
returning to userspace, which would be useful to detect kernel bugs.

Call lockdep_sys_exit() when returning to userspace,
enabling checking for held locks.

At the same time, rename arm64's prepare_exit_to_user_mode() to
exit_to_user_mode_prepare() to more clearly align with the naming
in the generic entry code.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/misc), thanks!
