3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx> commit 73d2fb758e678c93bc76d40876c2359f0729b0ef upstream. POWER8 allows read and write of the DSCR in userspace. We added kernel emulation so applications could always use the instructions regardless of the CPU type. Unfortunately there are two SPRs for the DSCR and we only added emulation for the privileged one. Add code to match the non privileged one. A simple test was created to verify the fix: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/user_dscr_test.c Without the patch we get a SIGILL and it passes with the patch.
