Subject: x86: x86-32 ptrace get/putreg current task
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5fd4d16bd59a9fc84ca94c4fce4abc23fe219108;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

x86: x86-32 ptrace get/putreg current task

This generalizes the getreg and putreg functions so they can be used on the
current task, as well as on a task stopped in TASK_TRACED and switched off.
This lays the groundwork to share this code for all kinds of user-mode
machine state access, not just ptrace.
