These two patches apply on top of tip/pti.

The first one cuts the idtentry macro as suggested by Linus.
I'm not sure whether this patch yet needs an explicit SOB by
him though. It was previously sent as RFC / testing only patch
"8/7" to the previous x86/entry-related series, cf.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180211104949.12992-9-linux@dominikbrodowski.net

The other one replaces the xorq-based register cleaning with an
equivalent xorl-based version, which is supposed to be faster on
some architectures.

Thanks,
	Dominik

Play a little trick in the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro
to insert the GP registers "above" the original return address.
This allows us to (re-)insert the macro in error_entry() and
paranoid_entry() and to remove it from the idtentry macro. This
reduces the static footprint significantly:

Using xorq to clear general-purpose registers is slower than
xorl on some architectures. As xorl is sufficient to clear all
64bit of these registers,[*] switch the x86 64-bit entry code
to use xorl.

[*] According to Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's
    Manual, section 3.4.1.1, the result of 32-bit operands are "zero-
    extended to a 64-bit result in the destination general-purpose
    register." The AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual Volume 3,
    Appendix B.1, describes the same behaviour.

Play a little trick in the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro
to insert the GP registers "above" the original return address.

This allows us to (re-)insert the macro in error_entry() and
paranoid_entry() and to remove it from the idtentry macro. This
reduces the static footprint significantly:

x86/entry/64: Use 'xorl' for faster register clearing

On some x86 CPU microarchitectures using 'xorq' to clear general-purpose
registers is slower than 'xorl'. As 'xorl' is sufficient to clear all
64 bits of these registers due to zero-extension [*], switch the x86
64-bit entry code to use 'xorl'.

No change in functionality and no change in code size.

[*] According to Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's
    Manual, section 3.4.1.1, the result of 32-bit operands are "zero-
    extended to a 64-bit result in the destination general-purpose
    register." The AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual Volume 3,
    Appendix B.1, describes the same behaviour.

If we switch from gs to GS, we should do it in both places.

Thanks!
