[PATCH 3/3] x86: context_tracking: avoid irq_save/irq_restore on kernel entry and exit

Show all headers | View raw

x86 always calls user_enter and user_exit with interrupt disabled.
Therefore, it is not necessary to check for exceptions, nor to
save/restore the IRQ state, when context tracking functions are
called by guest_enter and guest_exit.

Use the previously introduced __context_tracking_entry and
__context_tracking_exit.
