4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 9da78ba6b47b46428cfdfc0851511ab29c869798 upstream. The only user was the 64-bit opportunistic SYSRET failure path, and that path didn't really need it. This change makes the opportunistic SYSRET code a bit more straightforward and gets rid of the label.
