Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: ptrace: tm_reclaim_current() in flush_tmregs_to_thread()
Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2016 15:44:46 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160810054446.5624-1-cyrilbur@gmail.com> (raw)

There was an assumption that flush_tmregs_to_thread() would only be
called for a task which is not current. And a warning could be shown
to indicate that current is being ptraced.

In the event of a core dump the current threads state is needed. This
means that flush_tmregs_to_thread() must do its best to flush even for
current.

This patch also moves flush_tmregs_to_thread() into ptrace.c as it is
only called from that file.
