Subject: [PATCH RESEND] x86/uaccess: Improve __try_cmpxchg64_user_asm for x86_32
Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2022 18:16:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220628161612.7993-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)

Improve __try_cmpxcgh64_user_asm for !CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_TIED_OUTPUT
by relaxing the output register constraint from "c" to "q" constraint,
which allows the compiler to choose between %ecx or %ebx register.
