[PATCH v2] x86-64/entry: add instruction suffix to SYSRET
From: Jan Beulich
Date: Mon Dec 16 2019 - 05:39:40 EST
ignore_sysret contains an unsuffixed 'sysret' instruction. gas
correctly interprets this as sysretl, but leaving it up to gas to
guess when there is no register operand that implies a size is bad
practice, and upstream gas is likely to warn about this in the future.
Use 'sysretl' explicitly. This does not change the assembled output.
