[PULL,24/44] linux-user: provide frame information in x86-64 safe_syscall

From: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>

Use cfi directives in the x86-64 safe_syscall to allow gdb to get
backtraces right from within it. (In particular this will be
quite a common situation if the user interrupts QEMU while it's
in a blocked safe-syscall: at the point of the syscall insn RBP
is in use for something else, and so gdb can't find the frame then
without assistance.)
