From 500d14affdf73677071c075bb9becc637b60fe39 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2019 14:13:40 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: kernel: avoid x18 in __cpu_soft_restart The code in __cpu_soft_restart() uses x18 as an arbitrary temp register, which will shortly be disallowed. So use x8 instead.
