From 310de1a678b2184c078c593dae343cb79c807f8d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Schnelle Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2020 15:27:54 +0100 Subject: entry: Add exit_to_user_mode() wrapper Called from architecture specific code when syscall_exit_to_user_mode() is not suitable. It simply calls __exit_to_user_mode(). This way __exit_to_user_mode() can still be inlined because it is declared static __always_inline.
