4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 7798bf2140ebcc36eafec6a4194fffd8d585d471 upstream. On faulting sigreturn we do get SIGSEGV, all right, but anything we'd put into pt_regs could end up in the coredump. And since __copy_from_user() never zeroed on arc, we'd better bugger off on its failure without copying random uninitialized bits of kernel stack into pt_regs...
