[RFC/INCOMPLETE 10/13] x86/asm/entry/64: Save all regs on interrupt entry

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Tue Jun 16 2015 - 16:20:10 EST


To prepare for the big rewrite of the error and interrupt exit
paths, we will need pt_regs completely filled in. It's already
completely filled in when error_exit runs, so rearrange interrupt
handling to match it. This will slow down interrupt handling very
slightly (eight instructions), but the simplification it enables
will be more than worth it.
