The code in common_interrupt_return() does a bunch of unconditional
work that is really only needed on PTI kernels. Specifically it
unconditionally copies the IRET frame back onto the entry stack,
swizzles onto the entry stack and does IRET from there.
However, without PTI we can simply IRET from whatever stack we're on.

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.
