[PATCH 4.9 078/172] objtool: Fix IRETs opcode

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 03 2017 - 09:43:43 EST


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

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

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit b5b46c4740aed1538544f0fa849c5b76c7823469 ]

The IRET opcode is 0xcf according to the Intel manual and also to objdump of my
vmlinux:

1ea8: 48 cf iretq

Fix the opcode in arch_decode_instruction().

The previous value (0xc5) seems to correspond to LDS.
