Given that adr_this_cpu already requires a temp register in addition to the destination register, tweak the instruction sequence so that sp may be used as well. This will simplify switching to per-cpu stacks in subsequent patches. While this limits the range of adr_this_cpu, to +/-4GiB, we don't currently use adr_this_cpu in modules, and this is not problematic for the main kernel image.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
