Subject: [PATCH 5.4 11/51] x86/entry: Remove skip_r11rcx
Date: Wed,  5 Oct 2022 13:31:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221005113210.784576725@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221005113210.255710920@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

commit 1b331eeea7b8676fc5dbdf80d0a07e41be226177 upstream.

Yes, r11 and rcx have been restored previously, but since they're being
popped anyway (into rsi) might as well pop them into their own regs --
setting them to the value they already are.

Less magical code.
