Changeset 9687:bb1451fe594b --------------------------- x86: mark instructions for being function call/return Currently call and return instructions are marked as IsCall and IsReturn. Thus, the branch predictor does not use RAS for these instructions. Similarly, the number of function calls that took place is recorded as 0. This patch marks these instructions as they should be.

Does any one has comments to make? I am planning to commit it on Tuesday.
