3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@xxxxxxx>
commit 9a17b876b573441bfb3387ad55d98bf7184daf9d upstream.
Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to
PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old
registers are preserved.
Fixes: 478fcb2cdb23 ("arm64: Debugging support")
