Subject: [PATCH 3.10 19/48] ARC: Entry Handler tweaks: Optimize away redundant IRQ_DISABLE_SAVE
Date: Sun, 11 May 2014 21:19:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140511191950.724190228@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140511191948.079900414@linuxfoundation.org>

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

commit fce16bc35ae4a45634f3dc348d8d297a25c277cf upstream.

In the exception return path, for both U/K cases, intr are already
disabled (for various existing reasons). So when we drop down to
@restore_regs, we need not redo that.

There was subtle issue - when intr were NOT being disabled for
ret-to-kernel-but-no-preemption case - now fixed by moving the
IRQ_DISABLE further up in @resume_kernel_mode.

So what do we gain:

* Shaves off a few insn in return path.

* Eliminates the need for IRQ_DISABLE_SAVE assembler macro for ARCv2
  hence allows for entry code sharing.
