[PATCH 4.4 17/35] powerpc: Emulation support for load/store instructions on LE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e148bd17f48bd17fca2f4f089ec879fa6e47e34c upstream.

emulate_step() uses a number of underlying kernel functions that were
initially not enabled for LE. This has been rectified since. So, fix
emulate_step() for LE for the corresponding instructions.
