From ee4a3916614829914830bc4371358f4d4a63c4d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Kardashevskiy Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2013 17:44:23 +0000 Subject: powerpc: fixing ptrace_get_reg to return an error Currently ptrace_get_reg returns error as a value what make impossible to tell whether it is a correct value or error code. The patch adds a parameter which points to the real return data and returns an error code. As get_user_msr() never fails and it is used in multiple places so it has not been changed by this patch.
