Subject: MIPS: ptrace: Fix PTRACE_PEEKUSR requests for 64-bit FGRs
From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@xxxxxxxx>
commit c7e814628df65f424fe197dde73bfc67e4a244d7 upstream.
Use 64-bit accesses for 64-bit floating-point general registers with
PTRACE_PEEKUSR, removing the truncation of their upper halves in the
FR=1 mode, caused by commit bbd426f542cb ("MIPS: Simplify FP context
access"), which inadvertently switched them to using 32-bit accesses.
The PTRACE_POKEUSR side is fine as it's never been broken and continues
using 64-bit accesses.
Fixes: bbd426f542cb ("MIPS: Simplify FP context access")
