At least gcc 8.3 when generating code for x86_64 has a hard time consolidating multiple calls to current aka get_current(), and winds up unnecessarily rereading %gs:current_task several times in setup_new_exec. Caching the value of current in the local variable of me generates slightly better and shorter assembly.

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 Restructured Text 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.
