Subject[RFC PATCH v3 1/6] x86/entry/64: move PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS from interrupt macro to helper function
Date
The PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro is able to insert the GP registers
"above" the original return address. This allows us to move a sizeable
part of the interrupt entry macro to an interrupt entry helper function:

text data bss dec hex filename
21088 0 0 21088 5260 entry_64.o-orig
18006 0 0 18006 4656 entry_64.o
