Mathieu Desnoyers fe22983d92 rseq/selftests: x86: Work-around bogus gcc-8 optimisation
gcc-8 version 8.1.0, 8.2.0, and 8.3.0 generate broken assembler with asm
goto that have a thread-local storage "m" input operand on both x86-32
and x86-64. For instance:

__thread int var;

static int fct(void)
{
        asm goto (      "jmp %l[testlabel]\n\t"
                        : : [var] "m" (var) : : testlabel);
        return 0;
testlabel:
        return 1;
}

int main()
{
        return fct();
}

% gcc-8 -O2 -o test-asm-goto test-asm-goto.c
/tmp/ccAdHJbe.o: In function `main':
test-asm-goto.c:(.text.startup+0x1): undefined reference to `.L2'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

% gcc-8 -m32 -O2 -o test-asm-goto test-asm-goto.c
/tmp/ccREsVXA.o: In function `main':
test-asm-goto.c:(.text.startup+0x1): undefined reference to `.L2'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Work-around this compiler bug in the rseq-x86.h header by passing the
address of the __rseq_abi TLS as a register operand rather than using
the "m" input 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.
