4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

commit f208820a321f9b23d77d7eed89945d862d62a3ed upstream.

This reverts commit 64e16720ea0879f8ab4547e3b9758936d483909b.

We cannot call C functions like that, without marking all the
call-clobbered registers as, well, clobbered. We might have got away
with it for now because the __ibp_barrier() function was *fairly*
unlikely to actually use any other registers. But no. Just no.
