Heiko Carstens 67147e96a3 s390/stack: fix possible register corruption with stack switch helper
The CALL_ON_STACK macro is used to call a C function from inline
assembly, and therefore must consider the C ABI, which says that only
registers 6-13, and 15 are non-volatile (restored by the called
function).

The inline assembly incorrectly marks all registers used to pass
parameters to the called function as read-only input operands, instead
of operands that are read and written to. This might result in
register corruption depending on usage, compiler, and compile options.

Fix this by marking all operands used to pass parameters as read/write
operands. To keep the code simple even register 6, if used, is marked
as read-write operand.

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.
