Subject: [PATCH 47/51] arm64: tls: Avoid unconditional zeroing of tpidrro_el0
for native tasks
Git-commit: 18011eac28c7cb31c87b86b7d0e5b01894405c7f
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
References: bsc#1068032
When unmapping the kernel at EL0, we use tpidrro_el0 as a scratch register
during exception entry from native tasks and subsequently zero it in
the kernel_ventry macro. We can therefore avoid zeroing tpidrro_el0
in the context-switch path for native tasks using the entry trampoline.
