[PATCH] x86: use register variable to get stack pointer value

From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Fri Sep 29 2017 - 10:12:59 EST


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 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 removed function.
