[PATCH 3.4 69/91] ARM: 8165/1: alignment: don't break misaligned NEON load/store

From: lizf
Date: Tue Jan 27 2015 - 23:20:26 EST


From: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@xxxxxxx>

3.4.105-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


commit 5ca918e5e3f9df4634077c06585c42bc6a8d699a upstream.

The alignment fixup incorrectly decodes faulting ARM VLDn/VSTn
instructions (where the optional alignment hint is given but incorrect)
as LDR/STR, leading to register corruption. Detect these and correctly
treat them as unhandled, so that userspace gets the fault it expects.
