Subject[PATCH 3.13 077/162] compiler: define OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() macro
Date
3.13.11.11 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Cesar Eduardo Barros <cesarb@cesarb.eti.br>

[ 3.13-stable only: OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() macro
extracted from fe8c8a1 "crypto: more robust crypto_memneq" ]

[...] dummy inline assembly
(based on RELOC_HIDE) to block the problematic kinds of optimization,
while still allowing other optimizations to be applied to the code.

Signed-off-by: Cesar Eduardo Barros <cesarb@cesarb.eti.br>
[ kamal: 3.13-stable prereq for
d4c5efd "random: add and use memzero_explicit() for clearing data" ]
