powerpc: PTRACE_PEEKUSR always returns FPR0
There is a bug in using ptrace to access FPRs via PTRACE_PEEKUSR / PTRACE_POKEUSR. In effect, trying to access any of the FPRs always really accesses FPR0, which does seriously break debugging :-) The problem seems to have been introduced by commit 3ad26e5c4459d (Merge branch 'for-kvm' into next). [ It is indeed a merge conflict between Paul's FPU/VSX state rework and my LE patches - Anton ] Signed-off-by: Ulrich Weigand <Ulrich.Weigand@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
