[PATCH] x86_64: Bug in new out of line put_user()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The new out of line put_user() assembly on x86_64 changes %rcx without

http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4515 

See to it that %rcx is not changed (made it consistent with get_user()).
