[PATCH] i386: always enable regparm
-mregparm=3 has been enabled by default for some time on i386, and AFAIK there aren't any problems with it left. This patch removes the REGPARM config option and sets -mregparm=3 unconditionally. Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>

- Compile the kernel with -mregparm=3. This instructs gcc to use
- a more efficient function call ABI which passes the first three
- arguments of a function call via registers, which results in denser
- and faster code.

- If this option is disabled, then the default ABI of passing
- arguments via the stack is used.

- If unsure, say Y.
