Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/32: Clear on-stack exception marker upon exception return
Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2019 11:45:30 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d273fd9f1cc7ee36e1ee4da20631d507c39efe6d.1551267823.git.christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> (raw)

Clear the on-stack STACK_FRAME_REGS_MARKER on exception exit in order
to avoid confusing stacktrace like the one below.

Call Trace:

[c0e9dff0] [00003484] 0x3484

With this patch the trace becomes:
