Subject: [PATCH 04/11] powerpc/64: Convert the syscall exit path to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL
Date: Tue,  9 Jan 2018 03:54:46 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180108165453.26066-4-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180108165453.26066-1-mpe@ellerman.id.au>

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>

In the syscall exit path we may be returning to user or kernel
context. We already have a test for that, because we conditionally
restore r13. So use that existing test and branch, and bifurcate the
return based on that.
