Subject[PATCH 4.9 58/77] selftests/x86: Do not rely on "int $0x80" in test_mremap_vdso.c
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>

commit 2cbc0d66de0480449c75636f55697c7ff3af61fc upstream.

On 64-bit builds, we should not rely on "int $0x80" working (it only does if
CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y is enabled).

Without this patch, the move test may succeed, but the "int $0x80" causes
a segfault, resulting in a false negative output of this self-test.
