Add context tracking to the system call handler explicitly, and remove _TIF_NOHZ. This improves system call performance when nohz_full is enabled. On a POWER9, gettid scv system call cost on a nohz_full CPU improves from 1129 cycles to 1004 cycles and on a housekeeping CPU from 550 cycles to 430 cycles.
