[PATCH 07/20] x86/alternative: Remove operand numbering restrictions
Posted by Josh Poimboeuf 9 months, 1 week ago
alternative_input() and alternative_io() arbitrarily require input
constraint operand numbering to start at index 1.  No more callers rely
on that.  Simplify the interfaces by removing that restriction.
