[PATCH 1/2] x86_64,entry,xen: Do not invoke espfix64 on Xen

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Wed Jul 23 2014 - 11:34:30 EST


This moves the espfix64 logic into native_iret. To make this work,
it gets rid of the native patch for INTERRUPT_RETURN:
INTERRUPT_RETURN on native kernels is now 'jmp native_iret'.

This changes the 16-bit SS behavior on Xen from OOPSing to leaking
some bits of the Xen hypervisor's RSP (I think).
