3.8.13.5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <deller@xxxxxx>

commit 5b879d78bc0818aa710f5d4d9abbfc2aca075cc3 upstream.

When running the LTP testsuite one may hit this kernel BUG() with the
write06 testcase:

Reason for this crash is a gcc miscompilation in the fault handlers of
pa_memcpy() which return the fault address instead of the copied bytes.
Since this seems to be a generic problem with gcc-4.7.x (and below), it's
better to simplify the fault handlers in pa_memcpy to avoid this problem.

Here is a simple reproducer for the problem:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd, nbytes;
struct iovec wr_iovec[] = {
{ "TEST STRING ",32},
{ (char*)0x40005000,32} }; // random memory.
fd = open(DATA_FILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666);
nbytes = writev(fd, wr_iovec, 2);
printf("return value = %d, errno %d (%s)\n",
nbytes, errno, strerror(errno));
return 0;
}

In addition, John David Anglin wrote:
There is no gcc PR as pa_memcpy is not legitimate C code. There is an
implicit assumption that certain variables will contain correct values
when an exception occurs and the code randomly jumps to one of the
exception blocks. There is no guarantee of this. If a PR was filed, it
would likely be marked as invalid.
