x86/asm/entry/32: Explain reloading of registers after __audit_syscall_entry()

Here it is not obvious why we load pt_regs->cx to %esi etc.
Lets improve comments.

Explain that here we combine two things: first, we reload
registers since some of them are clobbered by the C function we
just called; and we also convert 32-bit syscall params to 64-bit
C ABI, because we are going to jump back to syscall dispatch
code.

Move reloading of 6th argument into the macro instead of having
it after each of two macro invocations.

No actual code changes here.
