[PATCH 0/3] x86: Fix pt_regs passed by value

From: Brian Gerst
Date: Tue Feb 10 2009 - 09:51:57 EST


Several syscalls and one trap handler currently rely on the pt_regs
struct being passed in by value. This causes problems with stack
protector, and can also cause problems with corruption due to tail-call
optimization. Change them to use a pointer to the pt_regs struct
instead.
