This bug went unnoticed on parisc since kernel 3.14 where the flexible mmap memory layout support was added by commit 9dabf60. The changes in fs/exec.c are inside an #ifdef CONFIG_STACK_GROWSUP section and will not affect other platforms. The other two patches rename args of the kthread_arg() function and fixes a printk output.
