Subject: [PATCH 4.4 029/107] x86/asm/entry/32: Simplify pushes of zeroed pt_regs->REGs
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@...hat.com>
commit 778843f934e362ed4ed734520f60a44a78a074b4 upstream
Use of a temporary R8 register here seems to be unnecessary.
"push %r8" is a two-byte insn (it needs REX prefix to specify R8),
"push $0" is two-byte too. It seems just using the latter would be
no worse.
Thus, code had an unnecessary "xorq %r8,%r8" insn.
It probably costs nothing in execution time here since we are probably
limited by store bandwidth at this point, but still.
Run-tested under QEMU: 32-bit calls still work:
/ # ./test_syscall_vdso32

[OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall
[NOTE] R11 has changed:0000000000200ed7 - assuming clobbered by SYSRET insn
[OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data
