 /*
+ * Switch back from the kernel stack to the entry stack.
+ *
+ * The %esp register must point to pt_regs on the task stack. It will
+ * first calculate the size of the stack-frame to copy, depending on
+ * whether we return to VM86 mode or not. With that it uses 'rep movsb'
+ * to copy the contents of the stack over to the entry stack.
+ *
+ * We must be very careful here, as we can't trust the contents of the
+ * task-stack once we switched to the entry-stack. When an NMI happens
+ * while on the entry-stack, the NMI handler will switch back to the top
+ * of the task stack, overwriting our stack-frame we are about to copy.
+ * Therefore we switch the stack only after everything is copied over.
