[PATCH 4.9 07/58] ARM: 8793/1: signal: replace __put_user_error with __put_user
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 18 2019 - 08:58:22 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
Commit 18ea66bd6e7a95bdc598223d72757190916af28b upstream.
With Spectre-v1.1 mitigations, __put_user_error is pointless. In an attempt
to remove it, replace its references in frame setups with __put_user.
