Subject: Re: [PATCH v1 6/8] x86/tsc: Use seqcount_latch_t

I think I lost the config and it's either gcc-9.3 or gcc-10, I can't
remember.

I just tried with:

  make defconfig
  ./scripts/config --enable PREEMPT --enable DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
  make oldconfig

And that reproduces things a little, but nowhere near as horrible as I
reported. Clearly I had something mad enabled by accident.

Don't look at this function in isolation, look at native_sched_clock()
where it's used as a whole.

What happened (afaict) is that the change caused it to use more
registers and ended up spiling crap on the stack.

GCC-9.3 gives me:

And you see it starting to spill stuff.

When we disable DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP it becomes much saner again:

But that's still slightly larger.



Anyway, I frobbed the patch to use the this_cpu variant, and I've queued
the lot.
