[PATCH 4/5] x86/efi: Save and restore FPU context around efi_calls (x86_64)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Do a complete FPU context save/restore around the EFI calls. This required
as runtime EFI firmware may potentially use the FPU.

This change covers only the x86_64 configuration.
