KVM: SVM: Let gcc to choose which registers to save (x86_64)
This patch lets GCC to determine which registers to save when we switch to/from a VCPU in the case of AMD x86_64. * Original code saves following registers: rbx, rcx, rdx, rsi, rdi, rbp, r8, r9, r10, r11, r12, r13, r14, r15 * Patched code: - informs GCC that we modify following registers using the clobber description: rbx, rcx, rdx, rsi, rdi r8, r9, r10, r11, r12, r13, r14, r15 - rbp is saved (pop/push) because GCC seems to ignore its use in the clobber description.
