#1249055 — [PATCH] x86/entry/32: Fix entry_INT80_32 to expect interrupts to be on

Subject[PATCH] x86/entry/32: Fix entry_INT80_32 to expect interrupts to be on
Message-ID<qkieJ-6nN-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
When I rewrote entry_INT80_32, I thought that int80 was an interrupt
gate.  It's a trap gate.  *facepalm*

Thanks to Brian Gerst for pointing out that it's better to change
the entry code than to change the gate type.

Suggested-by: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com>
Reported-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
Fixes: 150ac78d63af ("x86/entry/32: Switch INT80 to the new C syscall path")
Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
---

I can reproduce Borislav's warning with an appropriate .config, and this
patch fixes it.  I removed the Tested-by, because it's not the same fix
that Borislav tested.

You can re-add it. Looks good.

Ingo, Thomas, don't apply this.  It breaks the 64-bit build for stupid
reasons.  I'll send a v2.
