[PATCH 0/3] x86/entry: 32-bit C exit conversion and code deletion

[Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>]

[Resend, this time to lkml, too.  Sigh, I'm bad at this email thing.]

As promised, here's the 32-bit code.  Lightly tested.  Brian, thanks for
cleaning up the vm86 mess.

I can imagine some objections to patch 1.  I wonder how many users
actually care about 32-bit audit performance.  It ought to be relatively
straightforward to come up with a clean opportunistic sysexit
implementation for 32-bit kernels, which would fix the performance
regression (mostly, at least) and would speed up lots of other
workloads.

Are these okay as is, or is opportunistic sysexit a prerequisite?

Applies to tip/x86/asm.

P.S. Denys, I think we should do opportunistic sysretl on 64-bit
kernels.  That would be much nicer on top of your sysexit cleanup
series.

Andy Lutomirski (3):
  x86/entry/32: Remove 32-bit syscall audit optimizations
  x86/entry/32: Migrate to C exit path
  x86/entry: Remove do_notify_resume, syscall_trace_leave, and their TIF
    masks
