microblaze: uaccess.h: Fix timerfd syscall
__pu_val must be volatile to ensure that the value is not lost. It was causing the problem with timerfd syscall where using inline asm at the end of function call doesn't save u64 bit value to the stack. In comparison both cases you can find out this fragment where you can see the first part which is saved u64 value to stack and then using it in __put_user_asm_8 macro. Origin broken implementation misses the first two swi instructions. swi r22, r1, 28 /* missing without volatile */ swi r23, r1, 32 ... addik r4, r1, 28 lwi r3, r4, 0 swi r3, r25, 0 lwi r3, r4, 4 swi r3, r25, 4 addk r3, r0, r0 NOTE: Moving __put_val initialization after declaration has not impact on this bug. It is just coding style issue. Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <monstr@monstr.eu>
