[PATCH 3/4] x86: open-code register save/restore in trace_hardirqs thunks

From: Denys Vlasenko
Date: Sat Jan 10 2015 - 17:01:17 EST


This is a preparatory patch for change in "struct pt_regs"
handling in entry_64.S.

trace_hardirqs thunks were (ab)using a part of pt_regs
handling code, namely SAVE_ARGS/RESTORE_ARGS macros,
to save/restore registers across C function calls.

Since SAVE_ARGS is going to be changed, open-code
register saving/restoring here.

Incidentally, this removes a bit of dead code:
one SAVE_ARGS was used just to emit a CFI annotation,
but it also generated unreachable assembly insns.

Take a page from thunk_32.S and use push/pop insns
instead of movq, they are far shorter:
1 or 2 bytes versus 5, and no need for insns to adjust %rsp:

text data bss dec hex filename
333 40 0 373 175 thunk_64_movq.o
104 40 0 144 90 thunk_64_push_pop.o
