Subject: kexec: Move asm segment handling code to the assembly file (x86_64)
From: http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg (tip 13816)
Patch-mainline: n/a
This patch moves the idt, gdt, and segment handling code from machine_kexec.c
to relocate_kernel.S. The main reason behind this move is to avoid code
duplication in the Xen hypervisor. With this patch all code required to kexec
is put on the control page.
On top of that this patch also counts as a cleanup - I think it is much
nicer to write assembly directly in assembly files than wrap inline assembly
in C functions for no apparent reason.
