[PATCH 2/4] UML - Remove unused variables in the context switcher

From: Jeff Dike
Date: Wed Nov 14 2007 - 14:22:10 EST


This patch removes a variable which was not used in two functions.
Yet another code cleanup, nothing really significant.

Please note that I could not test this on x86_64. I don't have the
hardware for it.

[ jdike - Bits of tidying around the affected code. Also, it's fine on
x86_64 ]
