Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/8] Revert "arm: remove unused restart trampoline"
Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2012 16:06:59 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1340377626-17075-2-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1340377626-17075-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com>
This reverts commit fa18484d0947b976a769d15c83c50617493c81c1.
We need the restart trampoline back so that we can revert a related
problematic patch 6b5c8045ecc7e726cdaa2a9d9c8e5008050e1252 ("arm: new
way of handling ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK").
Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
