Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 2/3] LoongArch: Only clone and clone3 need to call SAVE_STATIC
Date:   Wed, 15 Jun 2022 18:29:32 +0800
Message-Id: <1655288973-6066-3-git-send-email-yangtiezhu@loongson.cn>
In-Reply-To: <1655288973-6066-1-git-send-email-yangtiezhu@loongson.cn>
References: <1655288973-6066-1-git-send-email-yangtiezhu@loongson.cn>
Precedence: bulk

In handle_syscall, it is unnecessary to call SAVE_STATIC for all syscalls,
only clone and clone3 need to do this operation, so it is better to check
the syscall number before call SAVE_STATIC.

With this patch, it can reduce many store instructions.
