I'm afraid that code has changed quite a bit since I looked at it last time.
[Jarkko Sakkinen seems to have worked on it lately, CCed.]

Jonas, I wonder what happens if you drop the first hunk of the patch (it just
uses a different register, which shouldn't matter)? Does it still help then?

If so, there are still a few things you can do to it, e.g:
(1) drop the

- btl $WAKEUP_BEHAVIOR_RESTORE_CR4, %edi
- jnc 1f

lines,
(2) drop the

- btl $WAKEUP_BEHAVIOR_RESTORE_EFER, %edi
- jnc 1f

lines,
(3) drop the

+ jecxz 1f

line,
(4) drop the

+ movl %eax, %ecx
+ orl %edx, %ecx
+ jz 1f

lines and see what the minimal patch needed for things to work again is.

Thanks,
Rafael
