Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Drop workaround for broken 'S' constraint with GCC 4.9
Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2021 13:01:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210118130129.2875949-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)

Since GCC < 5.1 has been shown to be unsuitable for the arm64 kernel,
let's drop the workaround for the 'S' asm constraint that GCC 4.9
doesn't always grok.

This is effectively a revert of 9fd339a45be5 ("arm64: Work around
broken GCC 4.9 handling of "S" constraint").
