Subject[ 17/85] vfs: missed source of ->f_pos races
Date
From: Greg KH <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>

commit 0e665d5d1125f9f4ccff56a75e814f10f88861a2 upstream.

compat_sys_{read,write}v() need the same "pass a copy of file->f_pos" thing
as sys_{read,write}{,v}().
