Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: fix put_user for 64-bit constant
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2007 17:19:51 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070126011951.ECFD5180051@magilla.sf.frob.com> (raw)

On x86-64, a put_user call using a 64-bit pointer and a constant value that
is > 0xffffffff will produce code that doesn't assemble.  This patch fixes
the asm construct to use the Z constraint for 32-bit constants.
