[PATCH v16 14/18] arm64: syscall: Simplify syscall exit path in el0_svc_common()

Remove the redundant conditional fast-path check within el0_svc_common()
as both branches now execute the exact the same
syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work().
Since both the conditional fast-path and the fallback slow-path now
uniformly invoke syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work(), this explicit
conditional branch is entirely redundant regardless of whether
the evaluation is true or false. Removing it collapses the duplicated
logic into a single, unconditional path.
No functional changes.
