Subject[PATCH v2 0/6] x86: Clean up fast syscall return validation
Date
This patch set cleans up the tests done to determine if a fast syscall
return instruction can be used to return to userspace. It converts the
code to C, and refactors existing code to be more readable.

v2:
- Fix shift value for canonical RIP test and use
__is_canonical_address()

Brian Gerst (6):
x86/entry/64: Remove obsolete comment on tracing vs. SYSRET
x86/entry/64: Convert SYSRET validation tests to C
x86/entry/compat: Combine return value test from syscall handler
x86/entry/32: Convert do_fast_syscall_32() to bool return type
x86/entry/32: Remove SEP test for SYSEXIT
x86/entry/32: Clean up syscall fast exit tests
