[PATCH 5.18 20/61] x86: Use return-thunk in asm code

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 12 2022 - 15:10:26 EST


From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit aa3d480315ba6c3025a60958e1981072ea37c3df upstream.

Use the return thunk in asm code. If the thunk isn't needed, it will
get patched into a RET instruction during boot by apply_returns().

Since alternatives can't handle relocations outside of the first
instruction, putting a 'jmp __x86_return_thunk' in one is not valid,
therefore carve out the memmove ERMS path into a separate label and jump
to it.
