[PATCH 4/4] kvm, vmx: remove manually coded vmx instructions
From: Julian Stecklina
Date: Wed Oct 24 2018 - 04:29:50 EST
So far the VMX code relied on manually assembled VMX instructions. This
was apparently done to ensure compatibility with old binutils. VMX
instructions were introduced with binutils 2.19 and the kernel currently
requires binutils 2.20.
Remove the manually assembled versions and replace them with the proper
inline assembly. This improves code generation (and source code
readability).
According to the bloat-o-meter this change removes ~1300 bytes from the
text segment.
