-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: David Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The 32-bit syscall trampoline for sys_ipc() on sparc64
was sign extending various arguments, which is bogus when
using compat_sys_ipc() since that function expects zero
extended copies of all the arguments.
This bug breaks the sparc64 kernel when built with gcc-4.2.x
among other things.
[SPARC64]: Fix arg passing to compat_sys_ipc().
Do not sign extend args using the sys32_ipc stub, that is
buggy and unnecessary.
Based upon an excellent report by Mikael Pettersson.
