Subject: [PATCH v2 11/20] x86/asm/64: De-Xen-ify our NMI code
Date: Thu,  2 Nov 2017 00:59:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bfbe711b5ae03f672f8848999a8eb2711efc7f98.1509609304.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1509609304.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1509609304.git.luto@kernel.org>

Xen PV is fundamentally incompatible with our fancy NMI code: it
doesn't use IST at all, and Xen entries clobber two stack slots
below the hardware frame.

Drop Xen PV support from our NMI code entirely.
