Subject: [PATCH] x86/msr: Make wrmsrl_safe a function
Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2015 17:13:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5900e4d77e9826494ff49cc4adb6bbe9b46e8bba.1433463184.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
The wrmsrl_safe macro performs invalid shifts if the value argument
is 32 bits. This makes it unnecessarily awkward to write code that
puts an unsigned long into an MSR.
Convert it to a real inline function.
For inspiration, see 7c74d5b7b7b6 ("x86/asm/entry/64: Fix
MSR_IA32_SYSENTER_CS MSR value").
