3.16.62-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@xxxxxxxx>
commit f5958b4cf4fc38ed4583ab83fb7c4cd1ab05f47b upstream.
Use the `unsigned long' rather than `__u32' type for DSP accumulator
registers, like with the regular MIPS multiply/divide accumulator and
general-purpose registers, as all are 64-bit in 64-bit implementations
and using a 32-bit data type leads to contents truncation on context
saving.
Update `arch_ptrace' and `compat_arch_ptrace' accordingly, removing
casts that are similarly not used with multiply/divide accumulator or
general-purpose register accesses.
