[PATCH 4.4 082/107] x86/cpu: Make alternative_msr_write work for 32-bit code

[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: Jim Mattson <jmattson@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5f2b745f5e1304f438f9b2cd03ebc8120b6e0d3b upstream

Cast val and (val >> 32) to (u32), so that they fit in a
general-purpose register in both 32-bit and 64-bit code.

[ tglx: Made it u32 instead of uintptr_t ]
