Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Add retval_value helper (updated)
Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2006 10:58:41 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060822052841.GB26279@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060822052448.GA26279@in.ibm.com>

From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com>

Add the return_value() macro to extract the return value in an
architecture agnostic manner, given the pt_regs.

Other architecture maintainers may want to add similar helpers.
