Subject: [S390] Fix kprobes breakpoint handling.
Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2007 17:53:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070126165300.GS11609@skybase> (raw)

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

[S390] Fix kprobes breakpoint handling.

In case of an illegal op the die notifier gets called with DIE_TRAP
instead of DIE_BPT first.
