x86/asm: Use register variable to get stack pointer value
commit 196bd485ee4f03ce4c690bfcf38138abfcd0a4bc upstream. Currently we use current_stack_pointer() function to get the value of the stack pointer register. Since commit: f5caf621ee35 ("x86/asm: Fix inline asm call constraints for Clang") ... we have a stack register variable declared. It can be used instead of current_stack_pointer() function which allows to optimize away some excessive "mov %rsp, %<dst>" instructions: -mov %rsp,%rdx -sub %rdx,%rax -cmp $0x3fff,%rax -ja ffffffff810722fd <ist_begin_non_atomic+0x2d> +sub %rsp,%rax +cmp $0x3fff,%rax +ja ffffffff810722fa <ist_begin_non_atomic+0x2a> Remove current_stack_pointer(), rename __asm_call_sp to current_stack_pointer and use it instead of the removed function.
