Subject: [PATCH 2/3] x86: Remove pda.irqcount
Date: Thu, 25 Dec 2008 22:58:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1230238726-17506-3-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1230238726-17506-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>
pda.irqcount is used to test whether we need to switch to an irqstack or not.
We can do without it, however, by testing %rsp directly: if it's already
within the irqstack range we don't need to stacks.
This makes switching the nmi handler to use the irqstack easier.
