This uses the new ASM_INPUT_RM macro to avoid the bad code generation issue that clang has with more generic asm inputs. This ends up avoiding generating code like this: mov %r10,(%rsp) tzcnt (%rsp),%rcx which now becomes just tzcnt %r10,%rcx and in the process ends up also removing a few unnecessary stack frames when the only use was that pointless "asm uses memory location off stack".

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.
