Without __unitialized, the following code is generated when INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO is enabled: 86: d7 0f f0 a0 f0 a0 xc 160(16,%r15), 160(%r15) 8c: e3 40 f0 a0 00 24 stg %r4, 160(%r15) 92: c0 10 00 00 00 08 larl %r1, 0xa2 98: e3 10 f0 a8 00 24 stg %r1, 168(%r15) 9e: b2 b2 f0 a0 lpswe 160(%r15) The xc is not adding any security because psw is fully initialized with the following instructions. Add __unitialized to the psw definitiation to avoid the superfluous clearing of psw.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
