      arm64: lse: Add early clobbers to some input/output asm operands · 55a0e02e
      Will Deacon authored
      commit 32c3fa7c upstream.
      
      For LSE atomics that read and write a register operand, we need to
      ensure that these operands are annotated as "early clobber" if the
      register is written before all of the input operands have been consumed.
      Failure to do so can result in the compiler allocating the same register
      to both operands, leading to splats such as:
      
       Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 11111122222221
       [...]
       x1 : 1111111122222222 x0 : 1111111122222221
       Process swapper/0 (pid: 1, stack limit = 0x000000008209f908)
       Call trace:
        test_atomic64+0x1360/0x155c
      
      where x0 has been allocated as both the value to be stored and also the
      atomic_t pointer.
      
      This patch adds the missing clobbers.
