[...] This backport is wrong. I think Martin's version for 3.2 (attached) should also work for 3.4 and 3.10. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Larkinson's Law: All laws are basically false.
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2014 14:43:06 +0200 Subject: s390/ptrace: fix PSW mask check commit dab6cf55f81a6e16b8147aed9a843e1691dcd318 upstream. The PSW mask check of the PTRACE_POKEUSR_AREA command is incorrect. For the default user_mode=home address space layout the psw_user_bits variable has the home space address-space-control bits set. But the PSW_MASK_USER contains PSW_MASK_ASC, the ptrace validity check for the PSW mask will therefore always fail.
