Merge branch 'parisc-4.11-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/ke…
…rnel/git/deller/parisc-linux Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller: "Al Viro reported that - in case of read faults - our copy_from_user() implementation may claim to have copied more bytes than it actually did. In order to fix this bug and because of the way how gcc optimizes register usage for inline assembly in C code, we had to replace our pa_memcpy() function with a pure assembler implementation. While fixing the memcpy bug we noticed some other issues with our get_user() and put_user() functions, e.g. nested faults may return wrong data. This is now fixed by a common fixup handler for get_user/put_user in the exception handler which additionally makes generated code smaller and faster. The third patch is a trivial one-line fix for a patch which went in during 4.11-rc and which avoids stalled CPU warnings after power shutdown (for parisc machines which can't plug power off themselves). Due to the rewrite of pa_memcpy() into assembly this patch got bigger than what I wanted to have sent at this stage. Those patches have been running in production during the last few days on our debian build servers without any further issues" * 'parisc-4.11-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux: parisc: Avoid stalled CPU warnings after system shutdown parisc: Clean up fixup routines for get_user()/put_user() parisc: Fix access fault handling in pa_memcpy()
