[PATCH v4 2/6] x86/entry: Rename ignore_sysret()

From: Nikolay Borisov
Date: Fri Jun 23 2023 - 07:14:29 EST


The SYSCALL instruction cannot really be disabled in compatibility mode.
The best that can be done is to configure the CSTAR msr to point to a
minimal handler. Currently this handler has a rather misleading name -
ignore_sysret() as it's not really doing anything with sysret.

Give it a more descriptive name.
