From 630c1863bc1c6c0ac33e5134bec7bdf7941c28c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2017 06:00:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/traps: Don't clear segment high bits in early_idt_handler_common() Now that pt_regs defines the segment fields as 16-bit, there's no need to sanitize the values.
