Subject: [PATCH 2/7] x86/vm86: Preserve orig_ax
Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 07:46:02 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1437047167-5634-3-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1437047167-5634-1-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com>

There is no legitimate reason for usermode to modify the orig_ax field on
entry to vm86 mode, so copy it from the 32-bit regs.
