sched, x86: Optimize the preempt_schedule() call
Remove the bloat of the C calling convention out of the preempt_enable() sites by creating an ASM wrapper which allows us to do an asm("call ___preempt_schedule") instead. calling.h bits by Andi Kleen Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-tk7xdi1cvvxewixzke8t8le1@git.kernel.org [ Fixed build error. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
