[PATCH] [42/45] x86_64: use descriptor's functions instead of inline assembly

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Fri Sep 21 2007 - 16:59:06 EST



From: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch provides a new set of functions for managing the descriptor
tables that can be used instead of putting the raw assembly in .c files.

Remodeling of store_tr() suggested by Frederik Deweerdt.
