Subject: [PATCH 0/2] fix clobbers list with ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS feature

The ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS feature may zero out callee-saved registers. This needs
to be properly modeled by things like code alternatives. Otherwise, it's
possible that a callee-saved register would be expected to remain unchanged
past an ASM statement when in reality it isn't.

Bill Wendling (2):
  x86/paravirt: clean up typos and grammaros
  x86/paravirt: add extra clobbers with ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS enabled
