Subject: [PATCH 4/9] x86/fpu: Remove the thread::fpu pointer
Date: Sat, 8 Jun 2024 09:31:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240608073134.264210-5-mingo@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240608073134.264210-1-mingo@kernel.org>
As suggested by Oleg, remove the thread::fpu pointer, as we can
calculate it via x86_task_fpu() at compile-time.
This improves code generation a bit:
