Subject: [PATCH 1/2] i386: Always treat %ebx as an allocatable register
Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2022 11:06:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e5609b0199e5f16f9b1c1178ea642ff0a3724152.1641895400.git.fweimer@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1641895400.git.fweimer@redhat.com>

!CAN_USE_REGISTER_ASM_EBP also disables the direct use of %ebx
in system calls, but that is not actually needed anymore.
