Re: x86_64: Bug in new out of line put_user()

[Nicolas Boichat <nicolas@boichat.ch>]

Hello Alexander,

I have other kind of problems with this patch...

With 2.6.12-rc2 + your patch, when I run OpenOffice (a 32-bit
application), I get this in dmesg :

It is easily reproducible on my system, I just have to start and exit
OpenOffice 1.1.4.

I got similar messages with 2.6.12-rc3 + your patch (please tell me if
you also want these messages).
I also had one system freeze and one reboot (when I clicked on a link in
Firefox (32-bit app too), I don't know if it is related). But I was
unable to reproduce these crashes, so I'm not sure whether it is caused
by rc3 or by your patch.

Please note that these problems did not occur with 2.6.12-rc2 + these
patches reverted:
 - x86_64-give-out-of-line-get_user-better-calling.patch
 - x86_64-move-put_user-out-of-line.patch
 - x86_64-remove-stale-unused-file.patch

Best regards,

Nicolas
