Bug 133955 – css jit should not save callee saved registers

• Component: CSS
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Alex Christensen]

We do a lot of pushing and popping that we don't need to, especially on armv7 and x86_64.  This could minimize it.

We need a way to specify whether we want to save the values in the argument registers.

A good optimization, but probably better as a separate patch, since the topic is not related to register saving.
