| |
Wire up the getcpu_cache system call on x86 32/64. Call the getcpu_cache_handle_notify_resume() function on return to userspace if TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME thread flag is set.
This provides an ABI improving the speed of a getcpu operation on x86 by removing the need to perform a function call, "lsl" instruction, or system call on the fast path.
