Subject: [PATCH 8/8] powerpc: copy_thread don't set ppr in user interrupt frame regs
Date: Wed,  1 Feb 2023 02:55:34 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230131165534.601490-9-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230131165534.601490-1-npiggin@gmail.com>

syscalls do not set the PPR field in their interrupt frame and return
from syscall always sets the default PPR for userspace, so setting the
value in the ret_from_fork frame is not necessary and mildly
inconsistent. Remove it.
