Subject: [PATCH] x86-64: Use stricter in process stack check for unwinder
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.19~7^2
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c547c77ee4d0408907847f64c403df1bf2f9c7a0;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] x86-64: Use stricter in process stack check for unwinder

Previously it would check for alignment only, which could break
if the stack pointer was unaligned. Now explicitely check if the
stack pointer is in the stack page of the current process.

Ported from i386.
