x86/asm/entry/64: Use local label to skip around sycall dispatch

Logically, we just want to jump around the following instruction
and its prologue/epilogue:

  call *sys_call_table(,%rax,8)

if the syscall number is too big - we do not specifically target
the "int_ret_from_sys_call" label.

Use a local, numerical label for this jump, for more clarity.

This also makes the code smaller:

 -ffffffff8187756b:      0f 87 0f 00 00 00       ja     ffffffff81877580 <int_ret_from_sys_call>
 +ffffffff8187756b:      77 0f                   ja     ffffffff8187757c <int_ret_from_sys_call>

because jumps to global labels are never translated to short jump
instructions by GAS.
