2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Michael Neuling commit 49f297f8df9adb797334155470ea9ca68bdb041e upstream. When we introduced VSX, we changed the way FPRs are stored in the thread_struct. Unfortunately we missed the load/store float double alignment handler code when updating how we access FPRs in the thread_struct. Below fixes this and merges the little/big endian case.
