Subject: x86: Use correct byte-sized register constraint in __xchg_op()
X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fkernel%2Fgit%2Ftip%2Ftip.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=2ca052a3710fac208eee690faefdeb8bbd4586a1
x86: Use correct byte-sized register constraint in __xchg_op()
x86-64 can access the low half of any register, but i386 can only do
it with a subset of registers. 'r' causes compilation failures on i386,
but 'q' expresses the constraint properly.
