[PATCH] ARM: traps: fix opcode endianness when read from user memory
From: Taras Kondratiuk
Date: Mon Dec 23 2013 - 11:43:01 EST
Currently code has an inverted logic: opcode from user memory
is swapped to a proper endianness only in case of read error.
While normally opcode should be swapped only if it was read
correctly from user memory.
