Commitab234a260b("x86/pv: Rework arch_local_irq_restore() to not use popf") replaced "push %reg; popf" with something like: "test $0x200, %reg; jz 1f; sti; 1:", which breaks the pushf/popf symmetry that commitea24213d80("objtool: Add UACCESS validation") relies on. The result is: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/si.o: warning: objtool: si_common_hw_init()+0xf36: PUSHF stack exhausted Meanwhile, commitc9c324dc22("objtool: Support stack layout changes in alternatives") makes that we can actually use stack-ops in alternatives, which means we can revert1ff865e343("x86,smap: Fix smap_{save,restore}() alternatives"). That in turn means we can limit the PUSHF/POPF handling ofea24213d80to those instructions that are in alternatives.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
