I ran some limited number of benchmarks, and in general the performance
impact is not very notable. You can still see >10 cycles shaved off some
syscalls that manipulate page-tables (e.g., mprotect()), in which
paravirt caused many functions not to be inlined. In addition this
patch-set can prevent issues such as [1], and improves code readability
and maintainability.

Ok, that's good enough as a benefit, I suppose.

 Makefile: Prepare for using macros for inline asm

This non-trivial kbuild patch needs an Acked-by from Masahiro.

Thanks,
