[Xen-devel] [PATCH] linux-2.6.18/x86-64: fix HYPERVISOR_iret unwind annotation

Minimally for %rax this needs to reflect that the value is no longer
saved: Since the whole hypercall page is covered by a single FDE,
subsequent entries would otherwise retain the state of %rax being saved
on the stack, yet the offset it's being saved at is out of bounds for
the "normal" hypercall stubs.

Breaking up the single FDE into per stub ones would increase the size
of the resulting .eh_frame section, which is already quite big for this
simple a piece of code.
