From: "David S. Miller" <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 397d1533b6cce0ccb5379542e2e6d079f6936c46 ]

Like a signal return, we should use synchronize_user_stack() rather
than flush_user_windows().
