Jan Beulich 2140a9942b x86/entry/64: Relax pvops stub clobber specifications
Except for the error_exit case, none of the code paths following the
{DIS,EN}ABLE_INTERRUPTS() invocations being modified here make any
assumptions on register values, so all registers can be clobbered
there. In the error_exit case a minor adjustment to register usage
(at once eliminating an instruction) also allows for this to be true.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
