Subject[PATCH 4.4 32/42] arm64/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write - 3
Date
4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>

commit a672401c00f82e4e19704aff361d9bad18003714 upstream.

Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to
PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old
registers are preserved.

Fixes: 5d220ff9420f ("arm64: Better native ptrace support for compat tasks")
