From e3893027a300927049efc1572f852201eb785142 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Helge Deller Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2016 18:11:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] parisc: Avoid function pointers for kernel exception routines We want to avoid the kernel module loader to create function pointers for the kernel fixup routines of get_user() and put_user(). Changing the external reference from function type to int type fixes this. This unbreaks exception handling for get_user() and put_user() when called from a kernel module.
