[PATCH 4.7 056/141] MIPS: uprobes: fix use of uninitialised variable
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 06 2016 - 05:51:59 EST
4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Marcin Nowakowski <marcin.nowakowski@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit ca86c9ef2b322ebf24772009fdea037688cbdac1 upstream.
arch_uprobe_pre_xol needs to emulate a branch if a branch instruction
has been replaced with a breakpoint, but in fact an uninitialised local
variable was passed to the emulator routine instead of the original
instruction
