Juergen Gross ab234a260b x86/pv: Rework arch_local_irq_restore() to not use popf
POPF is a rather expensive operation, so don't use it for restoring
irq flags. Instead, test whether interrupts are enabled in the flags
parameter and enable interrupts via STI in that case.

This results in the restore_fl paravirt op to be no longer needed.

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.
