[PARISC] Document some register usages in assembly files
Document clobbers and args in entry.S and syscall.S.
entry.S: Add comment to indicate that cr27 may recycle and EDEADLOCK
detection is not 100% correct. Since this is only enabled when using
ENABLE_LWS_DEBUG, the user is warned by the comment.
