Re: [PATCH 3.1-rc1] ARM: entry: fix wrong parameter used in do_thumb_abort

From: Janusz Krzysztofik

Any plans to fix this regression before the rc cycle is over, or at
least explain why it won't be fixed?

Any special requirements as to the process of submitting bug fixes
against arch/arm common bits?

Thanks,
Janusz
