Subject: tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fd7c99142d77dc4a851879a66715abf12a3193fb;p=linux-beck.git

tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write

Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to
PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old
registers are preserved.
