3.2.72-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx> commit 136d9d83c07c5e30ac49fc83b27e8c4842f108fc upstream. Commit 37868fe113ff ("x86/ldt: Make modify_ldt synchronous") introduced a new struct ldt_struct anchored at mm->context.ldt. convert_ip_to_linear() was changed to reflect this, but indexing into the ldt has to be changed as the pointer is no longer void *.
