In preparation for moving arm64 over to the generic entry code, restructure the fast-path syscall exit sequence within el0_svc_common(). Invert the nested conditional flags check so that when syscall work is pending or single-stepping is active, the corresponding exit work can be dispatched directly from within the fast-path bailout block. This clarifies the separation between the fast and slow exit paths, facilitating a cleaner transition to the generic entry state machine in subsequent patches. No functional changes.
