Subject: [PATCH 6/7] exec: simplify the copy_strings_kernel calling convention
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2020 17:42:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200421154204.252921-7-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200421154204.252921-1-hch@lst.de>

copy_strings_kernel is always used with a single argument,
adjust the calling convention to that.
