x86/asm/entry: Remove unused SAVE_ALL/RESTORE_ALL macros for !CONFIG_x86_64
SAVE_ALL and RESTORE_ALL macros for !CONFIG_X86_64 were
introduced in commit:
1a338ac32 commit ('sched, x86: Optimize the preempt_schedule() call')
... and were used in the ___preempt_schedule() and ___preempt_schedule_context()
functions from the arch/x86/kernel/preempt.S.
But the arch/x86/kernel/preempt.S file was removed in the following commit:
0ad6e3c5 commit ('x86: Speed up ___preempt_schedule*() by using THUNK helpers')
The ___preempt_schedule()/___preempt_schedule_context() functions were
reimplemeted and do not use SAVE_ALL/RESTORE_ALL anymore.
These macros have no users anymore, so we can remove them.
