[PATCH] x86/elf: Remove ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT from elf_core_save_regs()

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was mistaken about when ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT is applicable.  It is not
applicable for plain pushes/pops, so remove it from the flags logic.

Clarify the description of ASM_CALL_CONSTRAINT to be explicit about unwinding
using framepointers.
