[RFC v2 PATCH 5/7] x86/entry: use PUSH_AND_CLEAN_REGS in more cases
From: Dominik Brodowski
Date: Wed Feb 07 2018 - 15:21:22 EST
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe and nmi can be converted to use
PUSH_AND_CLEAN_REGS instead of opencoded variants thereof. Due to
the interleaving, the additional XOR-based clearing of r8 and r9
in entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe should not have any noticeable
negative implications.
