Subject: [PATCH] microblaze: fix get_user/put_user side-effects
Date: Thu,  6 May 2010 16:38:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1273181913-888-1-git-send-email-steve@digidescorp.com> (raw)

The Microblaze implementations of get_user() and (MMU) put_user() evaluate 
the address argument more than once. This causes unexpected side-effects for
invocations that include increment operators, i.e. get_user(foo, bar++).

This patch also removes the distinction between MMU and noMMU put_user().

Without the patch:
  $ echo 1234567890 > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  12345
