x86/entry/64: Fix entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe() IRQ tracing
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF
before it.  This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe()
were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only
user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong.

I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking.  (The
context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we
turn IRQs back on.)  I haven't tested that for real yet because I
can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV.

Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label.
