3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx> commit dfd948e32af2e7b28bcd7a490c0a30d4b8df2a36 upstream. We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in compat mode on s390. It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t. This is needed for architectures where the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.
