From 99245b507dc3b1b2815d6a6cb4e94a6b7018a24b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gleb Natapov Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2012 15:49:42 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86 emulator: drop unneeded call to get_segment() setup_syscalls_segments() calls get_segment() and than overwrites all but one of the structure fields and this one should also be overwritten anyway, so we can drop call to get_segment() and avoid a couple of vmreads on vmx. Also drop zeroing ss/cs structures since most of the fields are set anyway. Just set those that were not set explicitly.
