Subject: [PATCH] x86_64 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly.
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=36c4fd23cc06f81d68ee968c4c1bf1cebb3dcea5;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

[PATCH] x86_64 machine_kexec: Cleanup inline assembly.

In an uncensored copy of code from i386 to x86_64 I wound up
with inline assembly with the wrong constraints.  Use input
constraints instead of output constraints.

So I know the assembler will do the right thing specify the size
of the operand lidtq and lgdtq instead of just lidt and lgdt.

Make load_segments use an input constraint, and delete the macro fun.
Without having to reload %cs like I do on i386 this code is noticeably
simpler.
