[PATCH 2/7] UML - Fix skas0 stub return

From: Jeff Dike
Date: Thu Jul 28 2005 - 12:18:48 EST


From: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

It's wrong to pop a fixed number of words from stack before
calling sigreturn, as the number depends on what code is generated
by the compiler for the start of stub_segv_handler().
What we need is esp containing the address of sigcontext. So we
explicitly load that pointer into esp.
