From e506d1dac0edb2df82f2aa0582e814f9cd9aa07d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2020 12:15:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf/x86: Make dummy_iregs static Having pt_regs on-stack is unfortunate, it's 168 bytes. Since it isn't actually used, make it a static variable. This both gets if off the stack and ensures it gets 0 initialized, just in case someone does look at it.
