Subject: [PATCH 2/6] efi/x86: simplify IDT/GDT preserve/restore
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2022 15:42:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220815134223.740112-3-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220815134223.740112-1-ardb@kernel.org>

Tweak the asm and remove some redundant instructions. While at it,
fix the associated comment for style and correctness.
