Subject: xen: make xen_load_gdt simpler
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3ce5fa7ebff74b6a4dc5fdcdc22e6979f5a4ff85;p=linux-beck.git

xen: make xen_load_gdt simpler

Remove use of multicall machinery which is unused (gdt loading
is never performance critical).  This removes the implicit use
of percpu variables, which simplifies understanding how
the percpu code's use of load_gdt interacts with this code.
