[PATCH 4.4 56/80] x86/process: Re-export start_thread()

[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: Rian Hunter <rian@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit dc76803e57cc86589c4efcb5362918f9b0c0436f upstream.

The consolidation of the start_thread() functions removed the export
unintentionally. This breaks binfmt handlers built as a module.

Add it back.

Fixes: e634d8fc792c ("x86-64: merge the standard and compat start_thread() functions")
