[PATCH 07/19] ftrace/x86_32: Simplify parameter setup for ftrace_regs_caller

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri Jul 20 2012 - 22:22:01 EST


From: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@xxxxxxxxx>

The final position of the stack after saving regs and setting up
the parameters for ftrace_regs_call, is the position of the pt_regs
needed for the 4th parameter. Instead of saving it into a temporary
reg and pushing the reg, simply push the stack pointer.
