Subject[PATCH 0/4] x86: entry.S cleanup
Date
This is the first part of a bigger patch set I posted last August,
then under title of "x86: entry.S optimizations".

I fully rebased that patch set to Linus tree, but currently
Linus and -next are diverging a bit in arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S

To make it easier for mainteiners, I'm splitting the old patch set
into more digestible parts.

This is the first set. These four patches apply both to Linus and -next.
They do not contain any substantial code changes.
Patches 2 and 4 don't result in any actual code changes.

CC: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
CC: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
CC: "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@zytor.com>

Denys Vlasenko (4):
x86: entry_64.S: delete unused code
x86: ia32entry.S: fix wrong symbolic constant usage: R11->ARGOFFSET
x86: open-code register save/restore in trace_hardirqs thunks
x86: entry_64.S: fold SAVE_ARGS_IRQ macro into its sole user
