Subject: x86: fdiv bug detection fix
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e0d22d03c06c4e2c194d7010bc1e4a972199f156;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

x86: fdiv bug detection fix

The fdiv detection code writes s32 integer into
the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug.
However, the boot_cpu_data.fdiv_bug is only char (s8)
field so the detection overwrites already set fields for
other bugs, e.g. the f00f bug field.

Use local s32 variable to receive result.

This is a partial fix to Bugzilla #9928  - fixes wrong
information about the f00f bug (tested) and probably
for coma bug (I have no cpu to test this).
