Subject: [PATCH v1] x86: um: vdso: Add '%rcx' and '%r11' to the syscall clobber list
Date:   Sat, 24 Dec 2022 00:23:38 +0700

From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@gnuweeb.org>

The 'syscall' instruction clobbers '%rcx' and '%r11', but they are not
listed in the inline Assembly that performs the syscall instruction.

No real bug is found. It wasn't buggy by luck because '%rcx' and '%r11'
are caller-saved registers, and not used in the functions, and the
functions are never inlined.

Add them to the clobber list for code correctness.

Fixes: f1c2bb8b9964ed31de988910f8b1cfb586d30091 ("um: implement a x86_64 vDSO")
