Subject: [PATCH 2/3 RESEND] ptrace: cleanup address space conversion on ptrace_request()
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 01:06:15 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1282579575-9189-1-git-send-email-namhyung@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201008222206.18523.arnd@arndb.de>

In some cases 'data' should be considered as a user pointer but it requires
cast with additional __force markup which was missing. Rather than add the
markups wherever needed, make use of a temporary variable of user pointer.
This patch is based on compat_ptrace_request() implementation.
