49  *     executed on this CPU, and you want to make sure the new version
50  *     gets executed.  This generally means you're calling this in an IPI.
51  *

53  * it wrong.

71 	 * IRET-to-self is nice because it works on every CPU, at any CPL
72 	 * (so it's compatible with paravirtualization), and it never exits
73 	 * to a hypervisor.  The only downsides are that it's a bit slow
74 	 * (it seems to be a bit more than 2x slower than the fastest
75 	 * options) and that it unmasks NMIs.  The "push %cs" is needed,
76 	 * because in paravirtual environments __KERNEL_CS may not be a
77 	 * valid CS value when we do IRET directly.
78 	 *
79 	 * In case NMI unmasking or performance ever becomes a problem,
80 	 * the next best option appears to be MOV-to-CR2 and an
81 	 * unconditional jump.  That sequence also works on all CPUs,
82 	 * but it will fault at CPL3 (i.e. Xen PV).
83 	 *
84 	 * CPUID is the conventional way, but it's nasty: it doesn't
85 	 * exist on some 486-like CPUs, and it usually exits to a
86 	 * hypervisor.
