Subject: [PATCH 4/5] m32r: hole in shifting pc back
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 06:24:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100924052453.GO19804@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100924052035.GL19804@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>

It's a userland pointer; worse, an untrustable one since ptrace
has just provided a chance to modify it.
