[RFC PATCH v2 16/32] x86/fred: reserve space for the FRED stack frame
From: Xin Li
Date: Fri Jan 06 2023 - 04:22:28 EST
From: "H. Peter Anvin (Intel)" <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>
When using FRED, reserve space at the top of the stack frame, just
like i386 does. A future version of FRED might have dynamic frame
sizes, though, in which case it might be necessary to make
TOP_OF_KERNEL_STACK_PADDING a variable instead of a constant.
