    [PATCH] Use %ebp rather than %ebx for thread_info pointer · 077fbc21
    Luca Barbieri authored
    This patch changes assembly code that accesses thread_info to use %ebp
    rather than %ebx.
    
    This allows me to take advantage of the fact that %ebp is restored by
    user mode in the sysenter register pop removal patch.
