Subject: [PATCH v1 0/3] x86-64 entry documentation and clean up

Hi,

There are 3 patches in this series.

1) Trivial clean up in entry_64.S.
2) Add comment about registers on exit in entry_64.S.
3) Add documentation about registers on entry and exit.

(2) and (3) are based on the discussion we had at:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/alpine.LSU.2.20.2110131601000.26294@wotan.suse.de/

This series is based on commit:

  24556728c305886b8bb05bf2ac7e20cf7db3e314 ("Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm")

Thanks!
