+/*
+ * x86-64 rwsem wrappers
+ *
+ * This interfaces the inline asm code to the slow-path
+ * C routines. We need to save the call-clobbered regs
+ * that the asm does not mark as clobbered, and move the
+ * argument from %rax to %rdi.
+ *
+ * NOTE! We don't need to save %rax, because the functions
+ * will always return the semaphore pointer in %rax (which
+ * is also the input argument to these helpers)
+ *
+ * The following can clobber %rdx because the asm clobbers it:
+ *   call_rwsem_down_write_failed
+ *   call_rwsem_wake
+ * but %rdi, %rsi, %rcx, %r8-r11 always need saving.
