+ * We use macros for low-level operations which need to be overridden
+ * for paravirtualization. The following will never clobber any registers:
+ * INTERRUPT_RETURN (aka. "iret")
+ * GET_CR0_INTO_EAX (aka. "movl %cr0, %eax")
+ * ENABLE_INTERRUPTS_SYSEXIT (aka "sti; sysexit").
+ *
+ * For DISABLE_INTERRUPTS/ENABLE_INTERRUPTS (aka "cli"/"sti"), you must
+ * specify what registers can be overwritten (CLBR_NONE, CLBR_EAX/EDX/ECX/ANY).
+ * Allowing a register to be clobbered can shrink the paravirt replacement
+ * enough to patch inline, increasing performance.
