[PATCH 0/6] x86: infrastructure to enable FSGSBASE

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Mon Jun 04 2018 - 15:24:52 EST


Given feedbacks from [1], it was asked to make first a few
patches ready as soon as possible. To make FSGSBASE facilitated,
some helper functions and refactoring work are incorporated.
Besides that, it includes Andy's fix for accurate FS/GS base read
and cleanup for the vDSO initialization.
