x86: clean up switch_to()
Make the code more readable and more hackable: - use symbolic asm parameters - use readable indentation - add comments that explains the details No code changed: kernel/sched.o: text data bss dec hex filename 28626 684 2640 31950 7cce sched.o.before 28626 684 2640 31950 7cce sched.o.after md5: 2823d406c18b781975cdb2e7cfea0059 sched.o.before.asm 2823d406c18b781975cdb2e7cfea0059 sched.o.after.asm Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
