3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dave Kleikamp <dave.kleikamp@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1535bd8adbdedd60a0ee62e28fd5225d66434371 ] When checking a system call return code for an error, linux_sparc_syscall was sign-extending the lower 32-bit value and comparing it to -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. lseek can return valid return codes whose lower 32-bits alone would indicate a failure (such as 4G-1). Use the whole 64-bit value to check for errors. Only the 32-bit path should sign extend the lower 32-bit value.
