Subject: [PATCH 2/8] powerpc: copy_thread make ret_from_fork register setup consistent
Date: Wed,  1 Feb 2023 02:55:28 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230131165534.601490-3-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230131165534.601490-1-npiggin@gmail.com>

The ret_from_fork code for 64e and 32-bit set r3 for
syscall_exit_prepare the same way that 64s does, so there should be no
need to special-case them in copy_thread.
