[PATCH v7 28/72] x86/idt: Split idt_data setup out of set_intr_gate()

From: Joerg Roedel <joro@8bytes.org>
Date: 2020-09-07 17:36:59
Also in: kvm, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

From: Joerg Roedel <redacted>

The code to setup idt_data is needed for early exception handling, but
set_intr_gate() can't be used that early because it has pv-ops in its
code path, which don't work that early.

Split out the idt_data initialization part from set_intr_gate() so
that it can be used separately.
