Message-Id: <1465122046-9645-57-git-send-email-w@1wt.eu> Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2016 12:19:19 +0200 From: Willy Tarreau <w@....eu> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...r.kernel.org Cc: Helge Deller <deller@....de>, Willy Tarreau <w@....eu> Subject: [PATCH 3.10 056/143] parisc: Avoid function pointers for kernel exception routines From: Helge Deller <deller@....de> commit e3893027a300927049efc1572f852201eb785142 upstream. We want to avoid the kernel module loader to create function pointers for the kernel fixup routines of get_user() and put_user(). Changing the external reference from function type to int type fixes this. This unbreaks exception handling for get_user() and put_user() when called from a kernel module.
