4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 9dce990d2cf57b5ed4e71a9cdbd7eae4335111ff upstream. Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old registers are preserved. convert_vx_to_fp() is adapted to handle only a specified number of registers rather than unconditionally handling all of them: other callers of this function are adapted appropriately. Based on an initial patch by Dave Martin.
