Subject: [PATCH 4.14 44/89] x86/mm: Clean up register saving in the __enc_copy() assembly code

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tom Lendacky <thomas.lendacky@....com>

commit 1303880179e67c59e801429b7e5d0f6b21137d99 upstream.

Clean up the use of PUSH and POP and when registers are saved in the
__enc_copy() assembly function in order to improve the readability of the code.

Move parameter register saving into general purpose registers earlier
in the code and move all the pushes to the beginning of the function
with corresponding pops at the end.

We do this to prepare fixes.
