[RESEND][PATCH v2] powerpc: Export thread_struct.used_vr/used_vsr to user space
From: Simon Guo
Date: Wed Apr 06 2016 - 03:00:24 EST
These 2 fields track whether user process has used Altivec/VSX
registers or not. They are used by kernel to setup signal frame
on user stack correctly regarding vector part.
CRIU(Checkpoint and Restore In User space) builds signal frame
for restored process. It will need this export information to
setup signal frame correctly. And CRIU will need to restore these
2 fields for the restored process.
