[PATCH] [RFC] [X86] Fix a compilation issue with clang.

From: dl9pf
Date: Thu Aug 29 2013 - 13:15:39 EST


From: Jan-Simon MÃller <dl9pf@xxxxxx>

Clang does not support the "shortcut" we're taking here for gcc (see below).
The patch extends and uses the macro _ASM_DX to do the job.

>From arch/x86/include/asm/uaccess.h:
/*
* Careful: we have to cast the result to the type of the pointer
* for sign reasons.
*
* The use of %edx as the register specifier is a bit of a
* simplification, as gcc only cares about it as the starting point
* and not size: for a 64-bit value it will use %ecx:%edx on 32 bits
* (%ecx being the next register in gcc's x86 register sequence), and
* %rdx on 64 bits.
*/
