[PATCH 4.4 008/108] powerpc/64: Convert fast_exception_return to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Feb 15 2018 - 10:21:13 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a08f828cf47e6c605af21d2cdec68f84e799c318 upstream.

Similar to the syscall return path, in fast_exception_return we may be
returning to user or kernel context. We already have a test for that,
because we conditionally restore r13. So use that existing test and
branch, and bifurcate the return based on that.
