If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let know about it. >>From fef40be6da856afead4177aaa9d869a66fb3381f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2017 00:12:53 +0100 Subject: MIPS: Send SIGILL for linked branches in `__compute_return_epc_for_insn' From: Maciej W. Rozycki commit fef40be6da856afead4177aaa9d869a66fb3381f upstream. Fix commit 319824eabc3f ("MIPS: kernel: branch: Do not emulate the branch likelies on MIPS R6") and also send SIGILL rather than returning -SIGILL for BLTZAL, BLTZALL, BGEZAL and BGEZALL instruction encodings no longer supported in R6, except where emulated. Returning -SIGILL is never correct as the API defines this function's result upon error to be -EFAULT and a signal actually issued.
